"In a bizarre attempt to avoid a 50-game drug suspension, San Francisco Giants star Melky Cabrera created a fictitious website and a nonexistent product designed to prove he inadvertently took the banned substance that caused a positive test under Major League Baseball’s drug program. But instead of exonerating Cabrera of steroid use, the Internet stunt trapped him in a web of lies. Amid the information-gathering phase of his doping case last month, his cover story unraveled quickly, and what might have been a simple suspension has attracted further attention from federal investigators and MLB, the Daily News has learned."
Big deal.
Is it really any worse than the Daily News creating a fake reporter named Mike Lupica and, in the middle of August, writing a
phony column in which the "author" claims that Terry Collins and Bobby Valentine are doing excellent jobs managing their under-.500 teams?
You can't fool me, Daily News.
