Wednesday Barry Bonds' former trainer was arrested and ordered to serve jail time after refusing to testify to a federal grand jury investigating perjury against his client. Greg Anderson was already arrested in connection the BALCO case, pleading guilty last year to supplying illegal drugs to Bonds. He served 3 months in prison. I don't why he's protecting Bonds right now. He might as well just have cooperated.
First of all, this guy is obviously an idiot. He'd rather serve time in prison (though it may be short) than further rat out Bonds. Everyone knows he's a drug supplier and from his appearance a user too. Anderson is a San Francisco native who meet Bonds through a friend back in 2000 or 2001. That's why these two books stemming from the BALCO case and the secret dealings of steroid distribution sprung up.
I don't care what these baseball players today think, but the steroid issue isn't ever going away. People, especially the hardcore fans aren't going to ignore it. Congress is still conducting an investigation against Barry Bonds. Already this year reliever Jason Grimsley has been caught and suspended for 50 games. What a bone head move that was on his part. To me it seems like players are getting dumber and dumber. Why are the willing to risk their health (which should be utmost important), career, and fame. Ole' Bud Selig needs to take charge and hammer those who breaks the rules instead of putting cases on hold while MLB continues to reap billions.
