Mike Schmidt was my baseball hero back in the day. I wonder what his stats may have been if he could have been on the juice. I consider all the records from the last ten or so years to be tainted.
I consider steroids baseball to be a different game entirely, and it's not one I enjoy at all. Thus baseball has gone the way of hockey on my used-to-but-don't-now follow.
It's a topsy turvy world when the cleanest major sport in the USA is football.
How do you know Schmidt wasn't "on the juice"? I saw him up close a few times.. he was pretty "bulky". Roids have been around a very long time....
yup , and may I mention all those guys that still had great stats and served in WWII
I have said this on other threads...There is no player today who could TOUCH Ruth or Mantle. Ruth and Mantle were drunks. Alcohol is a perfomance inhibiting drug. Imagine what they could have done sober or juiced on roids.
Schmidt was one of the first. Ever look at the scars on his neck and face?
