Help me find people linked to PEDs and LaRussa. Also, make connections in a 6 degree of Kevin Bacon manner connecting steroid proliferation back to his tenure with the A's.
Rick Ankiel
David Bell
Larry Bigbie
Jose Canseco
Mark McGwire
Jason Giambi
Darren Holmes
Fernando Vina
Ozzie Canseco
Jason Christiansen
Dave Kingman
Add players and connect dots.
The obvious starting point could be Canseco, but I (without evidence) believe that Kingman probably introduced Canseco to roids. But anyway, let's play!
I stole an example from another sight: Pujols>McGwire>Canseco>Kingman (a perfect example as it's all under LaRussa)
If Angelo had picked McClellin, I would have been expecting to hear by training camp that kid has stage 4 cancer, is actually 5'2" 142 lbs, is a chick who played in a 7 - 0 defensive scheme who only rotated in on downs which were 3 and 34 yds + so is not expecting to play a down in the NFL until the sex change is complete and she puts on another 100 lbs. + but this is Emery's first pick so he'll get a pass with a bit of questioning. - 1060Ivy

Kingman was as thin as a rail, he was on anti-roids.
Fat Bastard is an immensely obese, hardly able to walk (weighing a metric ton) gardener and henchman hailing from Scotland. His extreme size endows Fat Bastard with super-human strength as exhibited by his prowess in the Sumo ring from Goldmember. This makes him a formidable enemy for Austin Powers. Fat Bastard is noted for his foul temper, his frequent flatulence, his vulgar and revolting bad manners and his unusual eating habits, which include taste for Human infants (which he calls "the other other white meat") or anything that looks like a baby, e.g. small people. Fat Bastard has been a regular at Cub games since the early 80's when he tried several times (unsuccessfully) to eat the visiting San Diego Chicken.

Where did you get the Kingman accusation? That makes no sense to me.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Kingman was gangly. Where does this come from?
I'm 100% fine with this. I'm just glad there's an actual plan in place that isn't, "Let's load up on retreads and hope we get lucky." I'm a little tired of that plan.

Start with Canseco, I don't care. I just want to see how much steroids proliferated out of his teams. So Tom, yes you're playing correctly.
