I like most all team sports. But there is a beauty about baseball that no other sport has. Those that want more "action" in baseball have attention spans of gnats and don't see the inner workings of a complex game.

And every sport gets the 'hero' BS thrown around. Not just baseball.

Just chiming in to say AMEN.

And I'm also getting sick of this 2003 report. If it was legally agreed to be an ANONYMOUS test with ANONYMOUS results, then why are we hearing about SPECIFICS and NAMES ??

And why NOW as opposed to years ago?

Why one or two names at a time?

And most importantly, why at all ? To my understanding, these were findings related to substances that hadn't even been banned YET in 2003. They were the findings that led MLB to increase the list of banned substances LATER, once they had determined what other substances were becoming popular among these players.

But bottom line, if these substances hadn't been banned yet, what's is all this sensationalism over?
