If not, please stop embarrassing yourself with this rant. How did the man pitch the same for the next seven innings?
And if you can't answer that, I won't bother posting back.
Are you ever going to comment on the next seven innings?

Yup, I will comment. However, someone already made the comment for you to see (and the media sees the obvious also)...the magic dirt issue later in the game.
Look at the video of him in the sixth and seventh innings. The camera crew were getting shots of the back of his hat. It looks like the same stuff.
Tim McCarver observed the Rogers took his glove into the clubhouse after the game and was shaking hands with his glove on. Who shakes hands with his glove on?
Listen to the audio clips. Why did Rogers' story keep changing? First he denied that the umpire talked to him about it. He said that he saw the "clump of dirt" himself and cleaned it off. Then later he says that the umpire told him to clean it off. Which is it?
Nobody is denying that Kenny Rogers is a great pitcher. He has been one of the best for a long, long time.
Make that a long, long, long, long time.
It may be that he is capable of pitching shut-out ball without artificial aides. But that doesn't mean he didn't have something helping him out in the First Inning.
The fact that he went on to pitch a great game is irrelevant to the question, because a) great pitchers pitch great games from time to time, and b) there are a lot of ways to doctor the ball.
wonder if(cardinal shill)Tim Macarver has any Mark McGwire shoot-up shots(crickets..)MLB is a joke, but these cards fans "whaaa, he cheated" make me LOL.
