Today has been a day of revelations. That there are spies among us. That Citi is not Goldman Sachs. That there are some exceptions to the rule that it’s okay to get hammered and lose your company a shit-ton of money. And now this. This insane bombshell, that one of the greatest minds on Wall Street has been juicing it up all these years. Brace yourselves.

A new book claims the admission came during a late-night conversation in February 2008 in Dykstra’s New York hotel…Roger Clemens had testified before Congress that day after being fingered in the Mitchell Report as a user of performance-enhancing substances. Dykstra’s name had also been included by Mitchell’s investigators. As the reports aired on a continuous cable loop, Dykstra blurted out his confession.

“You know,” Lenny said, finally breaking the ice. “I was like a pioneer for that stuff.”

“Excuse me, Lenny?”

“The juice. I was like the very first to do that. Me and [Jose] Canseco.”

He straightened up, as he prepared, somewhat proudly, to reveal his role in this dangerous, unseemly history. Dykstra seems to have convinced himself he hadn’t really done anything wrong.

“At first it wasn’t even illegal. Then, after a few years, I had to go to a doctor, and get a prescription. You know how I got my stuff? Just walking into a pharmacy, bro. It was as simple as that.”

    Seriously, when is Cramer going to be outed for being completely worthless and summarily dismissed by CNBC? Not that CNBC is this great reputable channel or info source but he is really dangerous to people who cant see past his ridiculous antics.

    Now my boy Kudlow…….

    @12 the day cramer gets outed will be the day when theres no more suckers who “invest” in stocks. just remember this atleast he’s bringing the juice to the locals and scalpers, and really a majority of this business is based on that “hot tip”.

    As the comments page refreshed in a continuous loop, Kouwe blurted out his confession.

    “9,778,” Zack said, finally breaking the ice. “I am like a pioneer for this stuff.”

    “Excuse me, Zack?”

    “I was like the very first do that. Me and Greg.”

    “At first, it wasn’t even illegal. Then, after a few years, I had to go to the blogs, and copy a post. You know how I got my stuff? Just logging online, bro. And if the tubes are down? Call The Close. It was as simple as that.”

    “9,778.”

    Zack Kouwe offered me steroids at my highschool prom. I said no, but he said he knew where I worked and that he would tell on me. I just stared at him, and he stared back. Then when we had sex. True story.
