We heard of Barry Bond's doctor, Arthur Ting's boys getting juiced at USC. We witnessed Andy Pettitte's father scoring HGH for his boy. Roger Clemens's wife Debbie looked pretty youthful in the SI shoot. And possibly Romo's wife scoring something for him.
Now, Sports by Brooks points out EX-ESPN wild man Craig Sager's son, Craig Sager, looking very buff for UGA football.
It’s postseason baseball on TBS these days, which means we get to enjoy yet another season of Craig Sager wandering around on our television in his eye-scalding multi-colored horrorcoats, asking athletes and coaches tough questions like “How’s that going out there?” or “Is this game important to you?”
But there’s something you probably didn’t know about him: he has a son - also named Craig - on the Georgia football team. As in the SEC. And Spawn of Sager is a little
unsettling.You’re probably wondering why you hadn’t heard of a Craig Sager on such a high-profile program like the Georgia Bulldogs.
The SEC was made for celebrities, after all! Turns out, he’s a walk-on and on Georgia’s scout team. He, um… he may not have been very highly recruited, as it turns out.
We noticed on Sager’s player profile page that
while it lists a high school and a coach, it doesn’t list any stats. Usually, when players join a D-I team, even as walk-ons, their profiles are full of the best stats the information department can find, even if it’s “260 rushing yards as senior fullback - 4 touchdowns!!!” or “Did not play - injury!” or whatever. But nope. Nothing here.We did some digging, then, and we finally found some high school football stats (pops to .PDF file).
How did Sager Bomb light up the gridiron for the Walton Raiders as a senior? Well… 6 catches, 53 yards, 0 TDs. In Sager’s defense, though, that’s before he went Incredible Hulk on the world. After all, putting a wideout with those stats on a major college’s scout team while he just so happens to have a famous dad might raise some eyebrows if he were still the 6′2″, 170 rail he was in high school. However, as the above pictures (from Sager’s MYSPACE.COM profile) indicate, he’s certainly taking conditioning seriously. Very seriously. Uncomfortably seriously.
It's a family affair...
Okay, the article has it's points.
I built up and one of the things that built me up was push ups.
Check this out: "While in the marines, he (Gordon Smith) set the intermilitary Marine Corps record for the most pushups in 1 and 1/2 hours: 2,010 pushups." (and the guy is a concert pianist, speaks a bunch of languages, etc. from this article) - John Marino's Bicycling Book, page 123, published 1981
You've got people using whey, lots of things are out there for people to bulk up.
Unless he's got acne on the back, I think this isn't an important story except maybe "nepotism", the kid's ol' man, the newscaster, getting him on the team is the story but not 'roids.
Imagine if one could do those 2000 pushups, what kind of body one would get. Guys at the gym, the author of this story would wonder about.

If you think without a doubt that this kid is on steroids you haven't touched a weight in your life. He is in good condition and added some muscle to a skinny frame.

Anyone who says the kid is not on the juice needs their head examined, and has no clue about males that age who are thin and how hard it is to put on that kind of bulk.
Jesus how much more obvious could it be???
Added "some muscle" to a 6'2 170lb frame??? Are you kidding? I guarantee he is every bit of 225 in that pic. You don't just add 50 plus pounds of muscle like that on a rail thin frame without some serious help. And I mean serious, that can't be just a low amount he is using he must be stacking and definitely knows what he is doing.
All these college kids are doing it, they have access to the juice and information we could only dream of in our college years. This kid is no different, he seems to either know someone (you think Craig Sager Sr has ever come across a trainer or two in his day hmmm) or has done his homework.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpokV1e_How click on the link. I know high school my stats were not good, but that is why I am where I am now.(Justice..haha) I know you guys think I did steroids or something, but it is not 1970. THE NCAA does drug test.haha That is just some work and knowledge of proper lifting. I have had two shoulder surgeries the past two seasons from banging around on kickoff return and scout team. My 40 time is 4.42 I ran it at our combine and ran a 4.50 the year before. I benched 225 24 times 5 months after shoulder surgery, and have a 38 inch vertical. I got voted Top Conditioned Athlete last season after the offseason only20 players on the team get it. If you want to criticize someone you should talk to my high school coaches. I am entering my last season and hopefully will have a role on special teams.

ESPN has to make the NBA Playoffs sound like Days of Our Lives because no one's watching. Well, the core viewers are still watching, but not the fringes. LeBron has taken over the league.

He doesn't really look like Craig though. He should dress like Craig if he wants to win.
