Andre Agassi says he used crystal meth in 1997

Why would someone admit to using crystal meth more than 10 years after the fact? Is that the way to sell your a****iography?

This Rick Reilly column makes me want to read the book:

say it ain't so Agassi, say it ain't so...next i'll find out Frank Thomas used PED's (and no, i don't think he did). Agassi and the Big Hurt were the 2 athletes i watched the most growing up.

Didn't everyone?

I almost don't blame him. While she's nice to look at, if I had to put up with Brooke Shields on a regular basis I'd probably have to chemically put myself out of misery on a daily basis as well...

Well, considering he sucked while he was on it, I wouldn't be too concerned.

Phenomenal interview with Dan Patrick right now...

Because

A) He has a book to sell

B) He apparently wanted to tell the truth

C) Using a drug a couple of times (even an awful one like meth) is not really a big deal. Obviously he just used it for recreation a few times or whatever, because I highly doubt he could have competed at the level he did if he was a meth addict.
