1) Just baseball? NFL, NHL, NBA?
2) Take away Bonds record. Hammerin' Hank should not be in 2nd place
because of juicing. Just because we don't find ALL the cheaters is no
reason not to punish the poster child of this mess.
3) I haven't watched a full ball game for 10 years. I haven't been to
a ball park in 12 years.

The Sosa/McGuire heyday years were what brought the fans back to the
ballparks after the strikes. There was no way in hell MLB would have
tested those guys honestly at that time - they would have been
shooting themselves in the foot.
they'll take this short term pain and pocket the long term gain.

I was a baseball fan up until the first strike some years back. They
(players AND owners)showed all fans what they thought of them.
Attendance
was down after that for YEARS and they were actually worried about it
and
when it started to FINALLY start to get better they strike again. That
iced
it for me. I'll admit this might be easier to say since we don't have
an MLB
team here in Indianapolis.
Bottom line - EVERYONE knew what was going on whether THEY were doing
it or
not. Cheating and disgusting. And Bonds should be stripped of his
record.
What an insult to Aaron...
And I LIKE your suggestion for replacing Selig with Mitchell !
JMHO

I'd be interested to hear what people think about this report. Should
these players named in the report be eligible for Cooperstown?
Should
we hang Donald Fehr from the highest tree in the land? What about Mr.
Selig?
