In other news...SAN FRANCISCO -- Big names in American sports continue to be called to testify in the ongoing federal grand jury investigation into a Burlingame, Calif. nutritional supplement laboratory and the designer steroid Tetrahydrogestrinone (THG).
Among the NFL players named were current Raiders linebacker Bill Romanowski, center Barret Robbins, defensive tackle Dana Stubblefield, running back Tyrone Wheatley, defensive tackle Chris Cooper, fullback Chris Hetherington and former defensive end Josh Taves.
Chiefs wide receiver Johnnie Morton, Patriots linebacker Larry Izzo and Falcons linebacker Artie Ulmer -- who played with the 49ers in 2000 -- also have been called to testify, according to CBS Sports.
San Francisco Giants slugger Barry Bonds will testify in December. His attorney, Mike Rains, said last Tuesday that the San Francisco Giants' slugger had received a subpoena about a month ago asking him to appear Dec. 4.
Rains also said that Bonds has never taken any steroids. He said that THG isn't on the list of illegal steroids and that the legislature may have to add it to the list before its use is illegal.
"They can run around and say this stuff's terrible, and it enhances performance," Rains said. "But the question is, have they banned it? If they haven't caught up with it, presumably it is still legal."
Nice legal argument. Well, if it's not illegal, then presumably it's legal. Forget that it's still a steroid and that THG was altered to make it undetectible during standard testing.
