treefitty74 Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 Please tell me where I said it was ok to use steroids? Man, you like to make assumptions. I just said that if they did take steroids, it wasn't against the rules of the game until now. There is nothing that can be done against them. I just find it haliarious now how all of America has vilinized all the athletes that we were worshiping less than a year ago because of some idiot who is jealous because we stopped worshiping him and needs money decides to bring everyone else down with him. You can't tell me that this one book or sequence of events suddenly made you see the light that players in baseball used steroids. The fact is that no one cared because it was trendy to watch a guy hit a baseball 500 feet and now the trendy thing to do is ostracize these same players because they "diminshed the integrity of the game." 825568857[/snapback] I agree with you 100%.....great post thumb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsradiotn Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 There is probably a good deal of truth to Canseco's book...but, there's also a good deal of fiction. He's selling a book and is upset at MLB. That makes for good reading, but not always the whole truth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jusdontno Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 Conseco has no credibility at all-just out to sell books. No way all he says is true-but some I'm sure is true or based in truth--just impossible to sort out what is true and what is embellished. So, yes he is telling the truth, there was plenty of steroid use. and, Yes he is lying and embellishing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sportsradiotn Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 Poor Jose, the 'roids have screwed up his memory. Maybe he thinks he's Mark McGwire! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDogDaddy Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 I can't believe that Barry Bonds played the Race Card when asked about roids. Yeah people are picking on him because he's BLACK .... give me a break! I always thought he was first class. When you're guilty be a man and cowboy up. Don't give us that weak nonsense about "people are accusing me because I'm black! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsradiotn Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 Bonds just went on a rant to try and get everyone to focus on another subject. Sosa tried the same thing. He makes me sick...such a me player and trying to show his disdain for the Cubs! That's for Cardinal fans! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhs Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 The worst part of all of this to me is that Henry Aaron remians my favorite all time baseball player. And Bonds will likely break his record but it should have an asterik next to it. Records were made to be broken. But broken the right way. There is no accountability among players today. i.e. Bonds finally addressing the issue and just coming across as upset off that people are sticking their nose into his business and it is causing problems for his kids. Single parent families with a parent working four jobs to make ends meet. Now those are kids with problems. Today's players could care less about the integrity of the game and the guys who came before them playing for peanuts by todays standards to make it what it is.
