TitanTiger 20,482 Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 NEW YORK -- On the field, Ken Caminiti's all-out style served him well. Off the field is where it got him in trouble.The 1996 National League MVP, who later admitted using steroids during his major league career, died Sunday. He was 41. http://espn.go.com/classic/obit/s/2004/1010/1899091.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bammanmr 0 Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 That is sad. Finley's quote from that article sums it up very well. "He was a great player, but he got mixed up in the wrong things -- taking drugs. It's a sad reminder of how bad drugs are and what they can do to your body. It's a loss all of us will feel. †Caminiti completes the celebrity trifecta - Dangerfield, Reeve, Caminiti. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big dude 0 Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 Dads, this is a good "this is what happens when you do drugs" profile to show your kids. A good guy, great ballplayer goes from hero to zero. All becuase of drugs. It's a shame that it happens to people we like, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayonaise 0 Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 I think it shows how good & bad you can be w/ drugs. W/o the steroids I doubt he has an Mvp yr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
