Baseball Almanac: Where What Happened Yesterday is Being Preserved Today Advertising Downloads Feedback Newsletter ... Year In Review Google Baseball Almanac "Rafael's a great hitter, great player and a true Hall of Famer. He really does it all. He's one of those guys that keeps on going." - White Sox slugger Frank Thomas B aseball Almanac is pleased to present an unprecedented collection of baseball related quotations spoken by Rafael Palmeiro and about Rafael Palmeiro. Rafael Palmeiro Quotations From Rafael Palmeiro "Hard work is the main thing—hard work and dedication. And I think a great part of it is goal setting. You set your goals to a point where they're attainable, but far enough away that you have to really go get them. And every year I push my goals a little bit farther away, and every year I work a little bit harder to get them. Every goal that I've set, I've been able to achieve. That's been very fulfilling." "I don't worry about things like that. I don't play for those things. I play to win. I play to earn the respect of my teammates, to earn respect from the players around the league, to win championships. Eventually, one day when it's all said and done, and my career is over, I'll be able to look back and be totally satisfied with what I've done. And I think people are going to notice. People are going to look back and say, 'Wow, where has this guy been?' So, I'm not worried." - Rafael Palmeiro in LifeDrive Magazine "My dad was the force behind me early on. He was just infatuated with baseball. He was the one that basically taught me how to play the game. He gave a lot of his time working out with me, practicing and taking me to a lot of different games. It was hard work between both of us." -

I love how he said he never "intentionally" used steroids. Does that mean he just told his trainer to give him anything, but never knew it just so he could plead ignorant once he did get caught. I think they also need to punish all users by suspending them, and at least note in the record books that the person who broke that record had tested positive for steroids when the record was broken. posted by mccarron (3) at 10:27 AM 8/01/05 score: +3 Excellent +2 Insightful +1 Useful Rate Comment -1 Off Topic -2 Flame -3 SPAM X wow... 10 whole games...

I am saddened that we are here to address this issue, but because of the importance of it, I feel the need to make a brief statement and address your questions. At the outset, let me say that under the rules of the basic agreement and the order of the independent arbitrator, there is an order of confidentiality governing the specifics of this case. I will attempt to state as much as I can and be as forthright as possible, but there will be issues I can't address based on the orders imposed on me by the basic agreement and the arbitration process. "I am here to make it very clear that I have never intentionally used steroids. Never. Ever. Period. When I found out that I had failed a test under the new drug policy, I filed a grievance and challenged the suspension on the basis that I had never intentionally taken a banned substance. Ultimately, although I never intentionally put a banned substance into my body, the independent arbitrator ruled that I had to be suspended under the terms of the program.

var SA_Message="SACategory=" + 'sports/orioles'; var adTemplate = templateConfigs[PRINTER_FRIENDLY_FLEX]; washingtonpost.com 'I Made a Mistake' O's Palmeiro Asks For Forgiveness For Steroid Violation By Jorge Arangure Jr. Washington Post Staff Writer Tuesday, August 2, 2005; E01 BALTIMORE, Aug. 1 The sign hanging from the warehouse adjacent to Oriole Park at Camden Yards proved an ironic backdrop to the day. In celebration of Rafael Palmeiro's 3,000th hit, the Baltimore Orioles hung a massive banner that in bright, bold orange letters, read, "Congratulations Raffy!" There was certainly nothing to celebrate on this somber day. Palmeiro, who only 17 days ago was honored for joining Hank Aaron, Willie Mays and Eddie Murray as the only players to have at least 3,000 hits and 500 home runs, was suspended for 10 days Monday for violating baseball's anti-drug policy. Palmeiro said he accidentally ingested a steroid and said he isn't sure when or how it happened. He appealed the suspension, but on Monday morning an independent arbitrator rejected the claim. "I hope the fans understand I've worked very hard over a long 20-year career," Palmeiro said in a conference call with reporters. "I put in a lot of time and a lot of effort into my career. I made a mistake and I'm facing it. I hope people learn from my mistakes. I hope the fans forgive me."

(AP) (CBS/AP) Rafael Palmeiro was suspended 10 days for violating Major League Baseball's steroids policy Monday, nearly five months after the Baltimore Orioles first baseman emphatically told Congress (video) that "I have never used steroids. Period." Palmeiro became the highest-profile player among the seven who have failed a test under the toughened major league policy that took effect in March, rules criticized by Congress as not being stringent enough. In a conference call Monday, Palmeiro said he never intentionally took steroids and could not explain how the drugs got into his body. CBS News Correspondent Howard Arenstein reports that he offered little explanation beyond saying he made a mistake.
