View Full Version : Give Giambi Another Chance

As a Yankee Fan I think that Giambi should get another chance to prove himself. Yes hes got the sterroid controversy looming over him and he had a shitty season last year. Its out there, and theres nothing he can do to change the past. Why should he be given another chance? Well Darryl Strawberry and Doc Gooden had their share of troubles before coming to the Yanks but the fans welcomed both of them. Both were involved with breaking the law and drug problems but the fans gave them another chance.
Steve Howe had something like 7 drug violations, God knows he had so many chances. I have a feeling that the fans and media are going to have a field day on Giambi the 1st time he steps up to the plate. Yes Giambi Fucked up, but if hes off the juice for good and hes got close to 20 homers at the all star break, I can live with that.
I dont care, I just don't care, I really dont care. F U Howard Stern!!!!!

In the case of Darrel, Doc and Howe all their problems were OFF the field drug related issues. Snorting lines doesn't make you gain 40 pounds of muscle while simultaiously adding 50 feet of power to your swing. Those guys were given welcomed back because regardless of what they did off the field, they didn't cheat on it. I'm open to giving Giambi another shot but not right away, he has to prove himself first.

They didn't take coke to make themselves better ballplayers. Giambi, Sheff, Bonds, and the whole lot of these fucking cheaters should be thrown out of jail, and should (and thanks to the juice, no doubtebtly will) die a painful horrible death after losing all the $$ they have stolen from fans.
Jason Giambi - steroids = Jeremy Giambi.

Give Giambi Another Chance
Ok. But if he starts to suck like last year again, he should be kicked off the Yanks.

His honesty and willingness to come forward and admit his mistakes takes balls and he did it. I'm not excusing his actions, but he's dealing with the shitty situation he put himself in as best he can, and I respect him for that much. Barry Bonds on the other hand is a scumbag who takes the fans for fools, and he'll take it to his grave that he "didn't know he was doing steroids." Bonds is another Pete Rose... He'll lie to us all for decades and then one day he'll finally spit it out in a book or something. I'm willing to give Giambi another chance, not only because I'm a Yankee fan, but because I think everyone fucks up, but not everyone has the guts to fess up to it and move on. Giambi did, but Bonds can suck my dick.

Hawk I have to respectfully disgree, but not for the grand jury testimony being leaked Giambi would still be lying to our faces this very day. He was forced into owning up to his mistakes, it didn't take balls to do what he did.

I want to see Giambi have a productive year. Alot of fans want to write him off and hopes he bats .230 with 6 home runs. If he can be productive, and I hope he can then the media and fans can get on with it then

just because YOU want to see him have a productive year doesn't mean we should give him another chance and welcome him back with open arms like all is forgiven.

Being a cokehead is more respectable than being a juicehead?

Yes, being a cokehead is more 'respectable' as you put it, in this case.
Coke does nothing to improve your strength, conditioning, or anydamn thing but your ability to be limp dicked, horny, and fucked up.
Steroids allows your warning track power to become 15th row sportcenter shots.
His honesty and willingness to come forward and admit his mistakes takes balls and he did it.
Hawk, not that you'd care, but I've alwas respected your opinion, and usually agree with it, but that statement is a joke, right?
Giambino lied for years, and would STILL BE LYING if somehow, that grand jury shit wasnt leaked.
However, the fact that that grand jury shit leaked is absolute BULLSHIT!
When does that happen?

Im going to have to agree with Tool and Game here. Giambi is not sorry beacuse he did it. He is sorry that he got caught. Darryl Doc Howe and others only screwed and cheated themselves. Jason and Sheff. YES Sheff and others. Cheated the fans their fellow players and the Game. will i cheer when he hits HRs? Sure i will. But i will not be cheering him. I will be cheering beacuse my team is benafiting. it may sound dumb to say that but what else can i do? say take the runs off the board? I just find it a joke that Sheff is getting a free pass in this just beacuse he finished 2nd in AL MVP voting. Thats Bullshit. Its like you going for a Job with a guy or applying for a school. And you have to take a math test. He has a calculater and you don't. Thats the same kind of unfair advantage they had. And don't give me this B.s that you gotta hit the ball. Yea You do. But Grace or Gwynn put the bat on the ball the same or better then Bonds or Giambi. But they never hit hrs Like that beacuse they were not cheating.

Jimmy Fallon kissing Drew Barrymore -- on the field, on live TV -- right after the Red Sox won their first World Series in 86 years. In fact, they were shown in a closeup within 60 seconds of the final out. And every Red Sox fan is determined to pretend that this never happened, and that it didn't taint the moment even a little bit ... so it wasn't a huge deal.

Bonds never flat out admitted he knowingly took steroids, Giambi did. There's your difference.

I can't believe you guys think doing steroids is worse than coke and everything else. Giambi was at least doing this to WIN ballgames. They (strawberry, etc.) where just trying to get high. Giambi didn't run the same risk of addition or half the other bullshit that comes with drug/alcohol abuse.
Yes it was wrong of Giambi to take steroids. I don't understand how you can have simpathy for someone who makes a mistake and takes drugs to get high, but not for a person who makes a mistake using drugs to make themself a better athelete. I guess you probably have more experience with narcotics than athletics.

When does that happen?
When bigshots in Washington want to embarass the guys that run Baseball (Selig/ Fehr) into doing something about it. At the time it was leaked, the steroid plan was a joke, and the Players Union was opposed to changing it. Selig said he wanted stronger testing put in the last CBA, but Orza said they'd strike over it.

Are you kidding? Re-read your statement. Giambi was doing it to CHEAT.
And Hawk, I don't think Bonds, Sheff or any of the other liars are any better or worse than Giambi, they just were dumb/smart enough to lie to the grand jury.
Marvin Benard, Benito Santiago, Pudge, Juan Gone, all of em, get em the fuck out the league.
But don't tell me Giambi is a good guy because he shit his pants in front of a grand jury, yet continued to lie to everyone else.
