Bo Jackson was accused of steroids and has decided to file a defamation lawsuit against the newspaper.

"Bo's reaction to the newspaper article was the reaction I expected from Palmeiro and never got. If its not true, then go after who ever said it." Agreed. Shocking that more people who deny taking steroids don't take action against their accusers.

Reflecting on 10 years of ESPN.com
