And I think we all know the reason for this latest outburst.Sports Bloggers Live Interview With Reggie Jackson wrote:SBL Craig: "Hey Reggie, on Thursday the book Game of Shadows hit stores and now Sheffield has been accused by these two writers of taking steroids. What's the Yankees reaction to that and what are your thoughts on the scandal?"
Mr. October: "I really don't know what the reaction is going to be, but it's like dead fish or dead animals with buzzards hanging around it. It seems like the carcass seems to get larger and the birds keep circling more and you start to see the problems and the dead people from a distance now when you see them circling in the sky. It's now getting to the point to where it's obviously nationwide. The circle gets bigger. The vultures get larger. And then the dead things start smelling. So it's not pretty."
"You know, Gary Sheffield is a high quality guy. Stands behind his word. That's what I've seen when he's been here with the Yankees. But they just keep diggingand digging and digging. It starts to get embarrassing because of the disparaging remarks. For some reason it seems like if you throw enough mud up against the wall, no matter how much you wipe it off you can still see the stains."
"So that's what I'm starting to feel now. I'm starting to get sensitive about it myself. I really don't like the leaking of data and information without some kind of legal right to go in and pursue all this information that's been gathered. There's too much hearsay. There's too many undisclosed, anonymous comments and at the same time when there are names exposed you just kind of wonder who's behind it all. It's ugly, and I really think it's only going to continue to get worse."
