From ESPN:
According to the official in charge of the agency which regulates pharmaceutical drugs in the Dominican Republic, Primobolan was not available for legal purchase, over-the-counter or with a prescription in his country between 2001 and 2003.
Dr. Pia Veras, who oversees the regulatory agency, told ESPNdeportes.com that Primobolan is known as “boli” in the streets of Dominican Republic, and was not legal for purchase during the aforementioned years.
“What Alex Rodriguez stated at the press conference [in Tampa] doesn’t make sense,” Veras said. “It is important for us to clarify that such substance has not been registered and is not currently registered for legal sale in Dominican pharmacies — not now and the same applies for the years 2001 to 2003.”
A representative of Rodriquez’s disputed the accuracy of the ESPNDeportes.com report.
Veras allowed ESPNdeportes.com to check the official records of the agency, which oversees, monitors and tracks the pharmaceutical inventory that is legally sold in the Dominican Republic.
ESPNdeportes.com reached out to numerous pharmacies in locations such as La Romana, Santiago, San Pedro de Macoris, Bani and barrios like Juan Baron and Palenque. The result was identical: each pharmacy reported that the substance Primobolan is not available for legal purchase, over-the-counter or even with a prescription.
While Primobolan may not be sold legally, I’m sure you can still purchase it through certain “underground” stores and businesses (something ESPN briefly mentions). I must note that the complexity of the news coverage — calling DR pharmacies, that’s something – for this scandal is baffling. Honestly, if Osama Bin Laden was a baseball playing, steroid user, I think ESPN would have found him by now.
The gotcha game is in full effect, folks.

I think I spea for a large segment of fans when I ask, Who cares? I am so tired of this.
agreed. Obviously the record attendance per venue says the same thing.
Exactly- the fans dont care, but the reporters claim that it is their duty to the fans to expose this crap.
Where was their “duty” in the mud 90′s? I’d like to ask them if they would be talking about this if guys like Caminitti hadn’t come out.
Exactly. They are covering up their error by overreporting the story now.
Anyone see this before??
