Snitch or Liar?


Rafael Palmeiro has quickly turned from a player no one cares about into a player that everyone absolutely hates. Congress is investigating him for perjury, so he's trying to come up with an excuse for testing positive. He could have went the generic way and said that he misread a label or a doctor gave him something for an injury. But no, team player Palmeiro decided to blame his teammate, Miguel Tejada. Palmeiro claims that Tejada gave him what Raffy thought were B12 vitamins, and those must have actually been steroids. Sure, I always take vitamins that people hand me.

First, I think Palmeiro's a liar. It's bad enough that he's trying to throw the blame to a teammate, but what's worse is he's trying to blame one of the most popular players in baseball. Luckily for Tejada and baseball, Palmeiro has no credibility. Then again, Tejada was a teammate of Jason Giambi.
