A-Rod held a press conference to explain his now admitted steroid use, a mistake he blamed on his youth, when he was 24-26. While the "Boli" which Rodriguez got through his cousin, over the counter in the Dominican Republic, remains a mystery. Rodriguez claimed he did not know it was a steroid. Asked why he kept the twice-a-month for-three-years injections a secret, he admitted he knew "We weren't taking Tic Tacs." The comparison might be a dismissive reference to the innocuous breath mint, but it implies a small pill taken orally, doesn't it? For your breath. Can you inject a Tic Tac? Maybe it's time to ask: what in professional sports circles is a "Tic Tac" injection?
