Drew's Bio
The only person in the history of Baltimore sports-talk to attend Game 2 of the 1983 World Series, shoot 64 in golf (twice) and sit next to Dave Grohl on a flight from Baltimore to Cleveland (1997), Drew is the host of The Comcast Morning Show from 6am-10am Monday through Friday. Topics routinely range from the Ravens, Terps and the Orioles and their decision to not improve the team for the (insert number of years here) consecutive season. His favorite movie is "Wiggle Bay" and his favorite member of Little Einstein's is June. Drew's son Ethan said, "Daddy, why do the Flyers stink so bad?" when he was only 8 days old. "Gotta start 'em young," the proud papa said that night.

A doctor who previously treated Tiger Woods after his knee surgery in 2008 is being investigated as part of a probe tied into performance enhancing drugs and Human Growth Hormone (HGH).
Here’s the story on Dr. Anthony Galea.
This will no doubt lead to plenty of “Tiger uses steroids” stories as the investigation begins and the paper trails follow Galea to Orlando where he treated Woods after his ACL repair in 2008.
Of course, there’s no evidence - now - to support any of those claims.
That said, based on the last few weeks, I could read a report right now that says “Tiger Woods played a role in the 9-11 attacks” and it wouldn’t completely shock me.
It’s always worth mentioning that what you see isn’t necessarily what you get.
Right now, naturally, it’s fun to play connect the dots with Tiger Woods. If his doctor is found to be a distributor of HGH or PED’s, people who aren’t smart or sophisticated enough to understand the whole situation will say, “That seals it. Woods is using them too.”
That’s how we work these days in America.
I have a golfing friend acquaintance who accepts illegal sports wagers and, gasp!, pays out if you win and collects if you lose.
I have a golfing friend acquaintance who sells marijuana. He doesn’t sell it for a living. He just seems to always have access to it if you need it.
If you saw me hanging around either or both of them, you might be inclined to connect me with those two miscreants.
But I don’t bet through my gambling golfer-friend and I don’t buy weed through my cannabis-selling golfer-friend.
Really…I don’t.
But you can go ahead and say I do if you want.
You’d be wrong though.

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck then by golly it is a duck. TW can afford the best medical care money can buy. We have all these famous medical institutions in the U.S. like Hopkins, Mayo Clinic, Stanford University Medical Center, Duke Medical Center etc. etc. etc. But none of them have the knowledge or expertise to treat TW like this doctor from Canada has , who happens to be under investigation for HGH and steroids. Yea right, if you believe that I have a 65 Corvair in excellent shape that I would like to sell you. LOL

Drew, true story. I tailgate in Lot H at M&T and every game, my buddies all pass the “peace pipe” around just before they go in the stadium. I do not participate. My wife went to the Pittsburgh game a few weeks ago. It was her first game in 3 years. On the way home, she said, “So I guess you decided not to smoke pot with your friends tonight because I was there?” I told her I don’t do it ever, even when she’s not there and of course, she didn’t believe me. I don’t know if Tiger uses steroids but I know there isn’t any evidence in place to show that he does so until I see that evidence, I’ll assume he doesn’t. Love the show.

The bottom line for this stellar athlete and former golf icon is that with his God given talent for golf, he will dominate the sport once again when he’s ready, but his icon image will be tarnished forever………..

All of these stories are very touching about someone being guilty by association such as Drew’s bookmaker friend and his drug dealing friend. If Drew says he doesn’t bet through his golfing aquaintance and doesn’t purchase pot through his his pot selling golfer friend I will believe him because to my knowledge he has never lied to me. That’s the trouble with TW now, he is a known liar and cheater having done both to his wife. So now if Mr. Woods tells the whole world he never used PEDs who can really believe him. If he lied to his wife and I am sure countless others, how am I to know when he is telling the truth.

USA TODAY conducted a poll of Tiger in June 2005. He was favorable at an 85% rate. Unfavorable 8%.
Hold tight, big guy.
They re-conducted the poll and now 33% are favorable and a whopping 57% are unfavorable.
Now the roids issue? It’s outta control !
