I ready an article today that Bary Bonds was going to appear before the BALCO grand jury and in the article it stated this:
"Athletes that already have appeared before the grand jury include track star Marion Jones and her boyfriend, 100-meter world record-holder Tim Montgomery, four Oakland Raiders and Olympic champion swimmer Amy Van Dyken.
An appearance before the grand jury, or being subpoenaed to testify, does not mean an athlete is a target of the probe."
Has anyone heard as to why Amy was subpoenaed or her reaction to being subpoenaed? This whole bay area steriod thing is getting interesting...

Although he is a terrific swimmer, I don't think that Gary Hall is someone who should implying that Van Dyken is guilty here, especially given his 1998 FINA suspension for knowingly using a banned substance.
"These athletes being called in to testify, if they are clean, owe us an explanation as to why they are part of this investigation."
I'm not looking to dig up any old dirt here, but I don't think Gary holds any moral sway in that area. As far as we know, Van Dyken has no charges against her and we don't know what she was asked about. Who can blame her father for coming to her defense?
"I invite Amy to tell her side of the story here on my web site."
Seems more like Hall's concern here is how to get his name back in the spotlight.
