I'm sure over the past 5 years or so, you've heard about the illegal use of steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs in the world of baseball. And I'm sure you're just as sick of hearing about it as I am. Like when Roger Clemens was accused of using steroids in the Mitchell Report, it was the only thing you'd hear about for MONTHS. Then he LIED about not taking them, so it was all over ESPN for ANOTHER month. In a more modern sense, Alex Rodriguez took "Boli" in his younger years with the Texas Rangers. Oddly enough, only his name was released from the list that was supposed to stay private.I think they should release ALL the names on the list of the 2003 steroid list so there is no unfair treatment. Very recently, Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz, both on the Boston Red Sox at the time, were taking steroids in 2003, and most likely 2004, which is the year they broke the 90-some year World Series drought. I consider it to be tainted, but then again, probably all teams have had someone taking performance-enhancing drugs. I also think there should be a steroids wing in the Cooperstown Baseball Hall of Fame, because Barry Bonds's record shouldn't have an asterisk. It's baseball, and the Major League Baseball Players Association need to release the list and move on, so we can all enjoy America's Past time--baseball.
