    Well, that was the problem back in the day....especially when they got those really tight axe wounds.

    I mostly don't care but anytime there is a shot that Ryan Braun can be shamed and sullied forever then that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Dumb piece of shit cunt that guy is.

    I wish they'd hurry up and make the announcement. With the trade deadline coming up, I wonder if a lot of teams will stand pat to make sure they don't get anyone that is about to spend the rest of the year suspended.

    Overall this is wonderful. Mostly because I hate the guys who were caught...especially the top two headliners.
    Selig has to actually suspend his adopted son Ryan...and hurt his family's interest in the Brewers..he must be gnashing his teeth (whatever gnashing is) and wringing his hands (whatever wringing is). Except the fucking coward could have done something about it years ago, along with his cuntass predecessors. Kennesaw is turning over in his grave.
    It's not like BB players didn't cheat in the past...damn, A spitball was cheating back in the day. Ty Cobb would hold the guy's belt at 2b to stop him from getting to 3rd, etc. Pitchers would take a piece of sandpaper and hide it in their glove and scuff the ball up...and it's like Chris Rock said, "if you tell me you've got some shit that will make me funnier, and lengthen my career and make me millions more in my life and all I have to do is shoot it up, I'd say stick it in my ass now" (or something like that). How true...
    And how come we aren't reading about the MVP award being rethought, since Braun's use was at the time he won it?
    I hope Selig's looking the other way on this haunts him forever, because it's guys like him who allowed it to get to where it is. Sort of like the Pope's closed eyes and ears in the past to those kinda problems.
    Wanna end it forever> Caught one time, banned from the game for life. Simple.
    Why, it's almost as shocking as...gasp...Pete gambling!!!!
    On to the next way to cheat.

    I've always been against the "caught one time, banned for life" thing because it is so black and white. Things could happen that are genuine mistakes and it could ruin a person's life. But I'm starting to warm to it.

    Thinking of Braun: what happens if he gets a 2x time offense charge? What are the odds he does it again? He could play out the remainder of his contract as a .220 hitting, backup OFer who is booed by his fans - and I say there's about a 0% chance he touches it again until his contract is played out. All the "I felt pressure to live up to my contract" excuses would certainly disappear...

    1st time: 162 game suspension (plus postseason, if applicable) and forfeiture of their current contract
    if/when they come back, they're under the former team's control and lose all prior service cred -- i.e., you make the mlb minimum

    2nd time: :ban:

    I like the aggressiveness, but I think teams need to have some accountability for what their players are doing too.

    Your proposal is almost asking for a sinister team who signed a flailing young allstar to a $160 million contract, to give him "cortisone" injections in the shoulder, watch him fail a steroid test, have the contract voided, and receive 6 more years of team control over him.

    I dunno, man...

    or maybe they should let pro doctors administer and regulate some of this shit since it can actually help without the crazy claims of making people into superman, and then once you do that, you ban people on a first time offense if they are caught (and tried as guilty) with anything illegal.

    So then MLB lets doctors do there thing, and maybe they can use this money for shit that actually has a bigger impact on the field: Better tech to get calls right, more force against shitty umpires, more money for research into these supplements to help injuries even more, and the list goes on.

    my humble opinion.

    The guy who started this, is now saying that he has at least a dozen names of players in the NBA.

    If the NBA or media ever take their heads out of their asses about PED's in the NBA then we are going to see the NBA go through what baseball did earlier in the 2000's but worse. imo.

    Basketball has the most freakish athletes in the world, coincidence, I think not.

    It's a good thing Kobe got his HGH from Germany.

    LeBron has to be one of the people on the list.

    You mean a black man can't be insanely jacked and losing his hair well before 30? He must be on something?

    That's racist man.
