the other phones in the office to see who was messing with me,"
he said Friday.  Aldridge said he didn't waste any time getting

take a banned substance?  "The only thing he said was he had a
friend that gave him the item and he didn't think it would do
any harm at that time," Aldridge said.   The calls started
Thursday.         "I didn't want them to think I was going to
back someone who cheated the game," he said.
