Giambis Amphetamines test failed

August 16th, 2007

If you usually follow baseball new that you probably remember the story of Jason Giambi taking an amphetamines test within the last year. This year the sportsmen took the test again and failed it. Newspapers reported that with the failed amphetamines test, the player has been subjected to 6 additional tests during this year. However, the player declined all comment to the newspaper. The Yankees slugger has recently stated in an interview to USA Today saying that he was probably tested more than anyone else. Lawyers for MLB would also like to talk to Giambi about his comments made last Friday. He said he was wrong for “doing that stuff”. The remarks of the New York Yankees hitter many interpreted as an admission of the use of steroids. Management lawyers insist on holding the meeting
as soon as possible. The failed amphetamines test would not be probably discussed at a meeting to keep a first positive test secret. Hall of Famer Frank Robinson reacted to Giambi’s comments saying that we all, including ownership, players, and everybody should have stood up a long time ago. We should have apologized back then as well and made sure that we had a rule in place and gone forward. So Giambi should speak for himself. If Giambi wanted to confess his past mistakes, then he should have come out and said that he was guilty. He should apologize to baseball and to all
the fans that supported him and baseball over the years. He should promise that he will clean up his act and promise he will not do anything like this in future. But he shouldn’t drag others into the affair, because when he says baseball, logically, that includes everyone in baseball.
