While Curt Schilling might not agree, Red Sox slugger David Ortiz says in today's Boston Herald that fans should loudly cheer Barry Bonds when Bonds' Giants visit Fenway Park next month.
In a more surprising comment, Ortiz tells the Herald that he is not 100-percent confident that he has never used steroids -- but that if he has used them, it was when he was much younger.
“I tell you, I don’t know too much about steroids, but I started listening about steroids when they started to bring that ... up, and I started realizing and getting to know a little bit about it,” Ortiz said, according to the Herald's Michael Silverman. “You’ve got to be careful. ... I used to buy a protein shake in my country. I don’t do that anymore because they don’t have the approval for that here, so I know that, so I’m off of buying things at the GNC back in the Dominican (Republic). But it can happen anytime, it can happen. I don’t know. I don’t know if I drank something in my youth, not knowing it.”

I appreciate his honesty. You never know what is in things. I myself had a sinus infection once and was prescibed a steroid.
