amare32 Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Thursday, October 13, 2005Romo tells '60 Minutes' he used steroids--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Associated PressNEW YORK -- Bill Romanowski used steroids and human growth hormone supplied by Victor Conte, the former NFL linebacker tells CBS' "60 Minutes" in an interview to be broadcast Sunday. Romanowski said he took illegal steroids for a two-year period starting in 2001 and got them from Conte, the former head of the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative, which has been at the center of a steroids controversy in several sports."I took [human growth hormone] for a brief period and ... I definitely didn't receive what I got out of THG," Romanowski said, referring to another drug he got from Conte. In November 2003, the NFL notified Romanowski that he tested positive for the steroid THG. Romanowski played linebacker for the San Francisco 49ers, Philadelphia Eagles, Denver Broncos and Oakland Raiders in a 16-year career that ended in 2003. Last May, he agreed to pay former Raiders teammate Marcus Williams $415,000 in damages for a hit to the face during a practice drill in 2003. Williams' career ended after his eye socket was broken. Romanowski played for the Raiders during their 2002 Super Bowl season. He writes about his NFL career in a soon-to-be-released book, "Romo, My Life on the Edge."In other non-stories, water is wet, the Pope wears a funny hat, and bears plop in the woods.

Cujo Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 This would actually be a story if Romo were to maybe name names like Barry Bonds, Jason Giambi, or Gary Sheffield. All who are alleged BALCO cheaters eeerrrr customers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VitaminD Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 You mean Bears plop in the woods? Its actually mainly Kyle Orton... I thought Kyle Orton just drinks too much, spills beer and drools on himself (and throws INTs) - didn't see any plop in those pix from Iowa City, but I didn't scrutinize them. "Start spreading the news... They're leavin' today... Won't get to be a part of it... In old New York..."In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jigga Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 He writes about his NFL career in a soon-to-be-released book, "Romo, My Life on the Edge." See athletes really are role models! I hope to one day write a book and profit off of years of illegal activity that I have spent half of my time denying like Romo, Canseco, and countless others.

Sodboy13 Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Of course, I remember Rick Reilly's piece in SI a few years back, where he lavished praise on Romo for his strict dietary and exercise regiments. He even made special note of the many supplements Romo carefully took, all of the doctors and nutritional consultants he used, and wondered aloud how anyone could ever accuse this fine physical specimen of using illegal substances.And at the time, I thought to myself, "What a steaming load of..."
