Outlaw

The Resume

    (1950- )
    Founder of BALCO (Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative)
    Former bassist for the funk group Tower of Power

Why he might be annoying:

    His company, BALCO distributes steroids to many athletes including Marion Jones, Kelli White, Tim Montgomery, and Bill Romanowski.
    He admitted that he has given steroids to Barry Bonds. Bonds frequently denies what Conte said.
    His company developed their own steroid.
    He prided himself on the fact that he made a steroid that could beat drug tests.
    His steroid distribution has corrupted sports, and has ruined the reputation of many athletes, especially baseball players.
    In July, 2005, he pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to distribute steroids and a second count of laundering a portion of a check. This led to him being sentenced four months in prison and four months house arrest.
    His steroids were used on several Olympic athletes, and Conte said, ‘in short, the Olympic Games are a fraud.'
    He has a very thin moustache.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He plays bass guitar.
    He has played with Herbie Hancock.
    Unlike many rich people, he actually spent some time in jail for his crimes.
    After a while, he opened up and told the truth about what his company was doing.
