Steroids in Baseball







I've been trying to hold back from stating my opinions on the steroids subject, but I can no longer do that. First of all, steroids in baseball is an epidemic and it's not just a Bond issue. There has been no charges nor suspensions against him, so why keep hounding on the issue. Do I think that Bonds took steroids, probably. At the same time, we must take a look at all players. Jason Giambi has agreed to meet with the George J. Mitchell and for what? What will this meeting do, other than him giving his own admissions of use. Let's just celebrate the fact that Bonds will break Hank Aaron's record. Before the issue of steroids came about, he was already on his way to Cooperstown! Until the league becomes more vigilant in its policy with firmer sanctions, then the game will never be clean. How do we know that Alex Rodriguez hasn't done steroids, oh because Balco never named him as one of the players. Please, A-rod has gotten bigger and stronger! We can't stain someones record because of accusations. I'm just saying that, there needs to be an overall objective and not singling out just one player. Why can't we just enjoy baseball and let it be! If there is concrete proof that Bonds cheated, then suspend him, otherwise move on! You know me, always opinionated.

I think that this steroid phenomenon is obsurd. I mean come on now fellas, can we use our God given talent for once?? Look at athletes back in the day, yeah they may have taken things but it was here and there. It seems nowadays, we don't know what the f*** (WTF) is happening. You wonder why some sports are losing their fan base.

Back to baseball, let's look at a few example of the Capri-Sun crew. Sammy Sosa looks like he's on crack now in comparison to his days in Cubbie land. Damn shame aint it? I hope that he lays off that stuff and show the MLB what's really going on! Palmerio straight up LIED at the hearing on steroids a few years ago. Seemed like he was flying high on his path to the Hall of fame but he may have sealed his own fate. Last but certainly not least,we have Mr. Bonds. I'm not knocking for doing his thing in San Fran but come now brotha, you are about to make history. Your image is forever tarnished and Hank Aaron may celebrate but half of America will be chunking Grade A LARGE eggs at ya. Like Sosa, lay off the juice and take care of business. It was be a crying shame to be out somewhere in 10 years and a kid says (Hey, are you the guy who hit over 756 HR's but cheated?"
