yeah and half the guys on that list were roided up.

It's hard for me to believe the type of year he is having. I watched him with Texas and honestly couldn't stand him at the time. So inconsistent, always striking out in key spots...unreal the turnaround he's made.

[face]

he might or might not be on roids. i have no idea, but he is hitting just as good as those other guys on roids. came out of nowhere. wonder how many he hits before the break

[face]

orioles have like 14 or 15 games left before the all star break. he could shatter those records

[stevenash]

This decade's Brady Anderson.
Also an Oriole

[face]

#33
like this guy a lot
moving up that list

[Chi_archie]

not close to Brady as a good comparison Nasher,

Brady wasn't a HR hitter until he started juicing, Davis has always been a slugger

[2daBank]

that list is a who's who of juicers..lol...wonder if davis is clean, yea right..

[face]

he has passed some tests. i am probably naive. will not pretend to know like you do banker.

There you have it. A direct question gets a direct answer. No equivocating. No gray area. No "speak to my attorney." Not even umbrage, at least that's obvious. Just a flat "no."
Now, Tran didn't ask if Davis were on "performance-enhancing drugs," or "HGH" or "testosterone," so it's possible that Davis is legally giving himself some wriggle room. But as long as he (presumably) continues to pass drug tests, we should believe him. It's really simple:
• He passes the tests.
• He says he's clean.
Therefore, he's clean. Enjoy it.

[onlooker]

I hope we don't here his name come up on any juicing list. It would be nice to see someone clean tear it up.

[2daBank]

you know my theory on test, lol. but besides just that i think there stuff they dont know/cant detect plus be so easy to do a cycle in the offseason and benefit all year while being "clean"..i mean who knows but a guy putting up numbers comparable to a list full of juicers makes it hard for me to believe he is totally "clean" (as in a off season routine or something now that isnt detected).. i dont care either way tho as ya know im all for it, lol..

[Chi_archie]

to be clear, do you mean the theory on test (as in testosterone) or in testing?

when mlb tests their players aren't they testing the ratio of testosterone that is in the blood?

and if anything is above the normal levels it is a "failed" test.

i'm sure there are plenty of other ways to enhance performance without increasing testosterone levels exogenously or endogenously but even legal supplements can't trigger a fail due to increasing testosterone in the blood levels right?

[2daBank]

testing..you are correct but again it real easy to run a 10 week cycle of something increase muscle mass and strength and have your levels back down to normal while still benefiting...then i heard conte saying they have shit now that you can spike your test levels for the night to aid in recovery and have them back down to acceptable levels by the next days gm..

[Chi_archie]

I think I remember you saying you did a cycle.

did you do a PCT afterwards? did you maintain what you had gained?

i've never taken anabolic steroids, but I did take some designer pro homorne that ended up being banned for sale about 6 years ago.

I felt like after 4 weeks of that (I think it was called superdrol), I lost a good percentage of what I gained

[2daBank]

yea i did clomid and bunch of natural stuff for pct..kept most of it, lost maybe a fraction of the strength but my bench, deadlifts, squats all still significantly up from when before i did it..think ive been off the pct for like 2 months so id think anything i might have lost has already happened...of coarse everyone different and i tend to be able to put on and keep muscle pretty well, nice for strength gain but pain in the ass cause i put on fat easy as hell also, lol..
