Ken Caminiti

1) you duplicated the strawberry pics.
2) why is caminiti a criminal?

Retired baseball star Ken Caminiti was arrested by Texas cops in November 2001 after he was found in a Houston motel with cocaine. The 38-year-old All-Star third baseman pleaded guilty to felony drug possession in March 2002 and was sentenced to three years probation, fined $2000, ordered to do 200 hours of community service, and attend drug, alcohol, and psychological counseling.

I think it happened at around the same time he admitted to using steroids during his MVP season. What a loser he is.

Hmm......

Why do you post here if you have such a negative attitude about sports?

i love sports, but i don't like it when sports becomes a sewer. the sport part is great but the, "having cocaine when you are in college" isn't. But in a way you're right, i have a negative attitude towards most sports, but that's because sports is becoming negative.

I have disagree there are plenty of great stories in sports, and I guess it is just me but the good, of witnessing a player like Juan Dixon or Larry Fitzgerald succeed definitley outweighs any bad aspects of sports.

As opposed to having cocaine when you are a professional? :stupid: That's not a valid argument. Cocaine is prevalent in all walks of life....and sports (college, pro, whatever). There will always be bad apples in the pros, and some are already bad apples in college. Doesn't mean the sport is altogether bad, though.

10Man- i understand there's cocaine and all this other crap in the pros also. But don't you think all of this stuff is a little worse in college? You can forget the material things like drugs and alcohol, and look at kids getting paid. Collegiate athletics don't work to make college better, they work to find loopholes in recruiting laws so that players like Villanueva can be on the court.

They bring a lot of money into the schools, and believe it or not, some of this money goes to bring more research facilities to the schook and otherwise make it a better academic institution.

what's your point? Are you saying that there was nothing wrong with what marcus vick did as long as he sells tickets?

Also, the money the stletics make goes back into the respective sport. New research facilites are either privately funded or paid for by the taxpayers.

:rolleyes: Im saying people like Marcus Vick are in the minority.

Also as far as I know Vick hasnt been convicted of anything yet.

in the minority? maybe as far as total athletes. But Va tech isn't in the minority as far as schools having people like Vick.

Off the top of my head I can name a couple other college athlete accused of Rape and one goes to Duke and the other to Syracuse.
