No conspiracy. People were always accusing A-Rod of steroid use. George Mitchell pressed Kirk Radomski about whether he ever sold any steroids to Rodriguez (Radomski says he never has) when he was writing the Mitchell Report, and Jose Canseco accused Rodriguez of steroid use in his second book, "Vindicated," but nobody paid attention to him because we figured the only reason he wrote that book was to cash in on his second shot at his 15-minutes (which he tried) and because he was broke (which he was).
What I do find funny is how quickly people are defending him, as if his 'admission' excuses it. Let's not forget that his admission is six years late and only comes to us by way of this leaked report. If this didn't come out, we would've gone to our graves thinking he was the anti-Bonds.

Cameron originally envisioned the Terminator as a small, unremarkable man, giving it the ability to blend in more easily. As a result, his first choice for the part was Lance Henriksen. O. J. Simpson was on the shortlist but Cameron did not think that such a nice guy could be a ruthless killer.
