Giambi Threatened To Speak

Giambi was ordered by MLB Commissioner Bud Selig to testify to the steroid investigation headed up by George Mitchell by today...but of course hasn't done so. I am guessing that if Giambi does indeed testify in front of this committee it will be on the conditions that he doesn't have to admit to anything and doesn't have to testify about steroids at all... and Selig will of course agree to this in an attempt to legitimize the steroid investigation which has done absolutely nothing since it's inception except to be an powerless entity lingering over the baseball world.

Of course if Giambi does refuse to speak to the steroid investigators Selig will unleash some sort of punishment on Giambi, like maybe a game or 2 suspension and if Giambi plays his cards right, he can delay anything until he retires, write a book about how he and many others cheated and then be enshrined into the hall of fame and give thanks to Selig for making it all possible. Have I mentioned that MLB is a freakin joke lately?

UPDATE: Giambi has agreed to meet with Mitchell to testify. Of course we may never know what he actually says but it does sound as if he is only going to admit to doing steroids himself and not 'out' anyone else. And even if he comes out and flat out says, yes, I did use steroids, the odds of anything happening to him, I am guessing will be remote. He is only agreeing to testify to not get punished for a positive drug test this year and by the time the steroid investigation concludes most of us will be deceased.
