Granted it is Yahoo rumors. If this is true about Roberto, it would explain his very fast downfall. It also could raise questions as to was this due to a steroid needle being shared and if so will we see more players come out HIV positive?
The tragic thing baseball and the players need to see is that if he has full blown AIDS or is even HIV positive, the vast majority will question whether it was a shared steroid needle.
So very sad this whole situation, where players in a whole generation will be doubted and everything that happens to them questioned. Baseball continues to make it worse. Where is Judge Keenesaw Landis when we need him? He'd release all tests, suspend the positive players for life and get baseball moving again. |
He'd also end up getting murdered by a wild-eyed Marvin Miller after completely ignoring everything the union tried to do
That Alomar thing is sad, but something doesn't add up when the first time anyone has heard ANYTHING about him and AIDS is a $15 milllion lawsuit from his "former girlfriend". I read a story that had a quote from his dad, Sandy Sr., saying that he had no knowledge of Robby and AIDS, and though he could well be covering for him, you would think if anyone would know...
Don't get me wrong; if this is true, she deserves at minimum every cent. It's just a little strange is all. Ok, really weird. Ok, completely Will-Ferrell-as-Harry-Carey insane.
