Unbelievable and and sad. I will never be able to look at this "bad actor" in the same light ever again. This is a guy many of us here have wished to pattern out entire lives after, a genuine hero!

He admitted he only took steroids for only "six or eight weeks," but that time period was when ALL the cameras were on him, folks, and it boosted his radar gun results by nearly 10%.

This is a sad, sad day for us all. :'(

And btw, on a grammatical side note: See how omitting quotation marks can radically alter the meaning of a sentence? :biggrin:

NEW YORK -- Turns out Wild Thing's fastball had a little extra juice.

Actor Charlie Sheen tells Sports Illustrated in its latest issue that he took steroids "for like six or eight weeks" while filming the 1989 movie "Major League." He adds that the performance-enhancing drugs helped his fastball go from 79 mph to 85 mph.

Sheen played fireballing relief pitcher Ricky "Wild Thing" Vaughn, whose wayward pitches were often "jussst a bit outside," as Bob Uecker's character, radio broadcaster Harry Doyle, sarcastically announced during the hit comedy.

Sheen, who has made recent headlines for erratic behavior and his firing from the show "Two and a Half Men," says it was the only time he took steroids and they made him a bit more irritable than normal.

^^^ It might have better had they made him a bit more normal than irritable. 😛
 
So, um...


Exactly what steroids gained him 6 mph? So I can avoid those even more than I avoid the other PEDs, of course.
 
how does this matter? i dont think danny mcbride can throw 100, either.

why did he need steroids for shots of radar guns?

Method acting demanded he really get into his role. He didn't want to but devotion to his art demanded it.
