Comments I Don't Want to Hear About Juicers

I've heard each of these on the radio over the past week:

1. He's been tested since 2004, so that's a good indication that he's been clean since then.
2. Kudos to him for "coming clean" (coincidentally immediately after he was caught)
   
3. He admitted to doping from 2001-2004, so when considering him for the HoF, we should just discount his homers in that period, since the other homers are legit.
4. He's got an unbelievable work ethic.
5. Steroids can't help in finesse sports like basketball.
6. Performance-enhancing drugs only help with fast-twitch muscles.
7. He only used drugs to recover from injury, so we forgive him.
8. I'm glad MLB is starting to take this problem seriously (says Obama).

And a prediction:
The Yankee fan will completely embrace A-Rod as soon as he has two good weeks at the plate.
