Discouraging. He was one of my favorite tennis players, along with his wife, Steffi Graf.

His book revelation won't top Mackenzie Phillips though.

It’s beginning to look like pro wrestling is the most honest of all pro sports.

using the recreational drug crystal meth

Meth is hardly recreational.

Wow. There really is no upper income limit to white trash, is there?

I've always been for a total end on the drug war, even coke and heroin, but a synthetic like meth is realy, really dangerous.

Steffi is more than OK but being married to Brook Shields? What was he thinking. She's not an awful person but she looks like one who wants to dominate a relationship due to being five years older than him. Plus she is not so feminine as Steffi

The Sheilds marriage dragged down his game to the point where he would take meth

Isn’t this the guy that Barbara Striesand once gushed about as being some kind of ‘greek god’?

As long as they’re not operating a motor vehicle or otherwise in a position to put the public in jeopardy I don’t really care what any adult want’s to do with their own body. If he did enough meth then it simply creates a vacuum that some athlete not willing to contaminate his or her own body can step into.

gee, the ATP gives Agassi a pass on crystal meth while guys doing testosterone get the boot with no appeal. Heck you can't even use a decongestant like Sinutab cause it is detected as amphetamines in urine tests. Same with anti inflammatory use of steroids because of the stupid rules regulating "drug" use.

I guess some animals are more equal than others.

I wonder when the Balco case will or might involve some female tennis players? I wonder what would happen then?

I dislike more that he used the fear-of-marriage excuse than that he used the drug. Up to that moment, I thought Agassi was a gentleman. yuk

Agassi's father was an Iranian of Armenian and Assyrian ethnicity. The father represented Iran in the '48 and '52 Olympics as a member of the Iranian boxing team.

Funny I have never heard the phrase “did crystal meth like a gentleman”.
