Hey, I’m not saying he didn’t juice. He probably did but we should keep in mind that
(i) It wasn’t against the rules at the times
(ii) It wasn’t illegal for his trainer to use it
(iii) there is no evidence that can prove either of these guys right/wrong.

Why don’t we take up the discussion of fan complicity in the juicing scandal?

The fans went to games looking for the no-hitter, the back-to-back-to-back home runs. We (the fans) wanted it so bad that MLB altered the game *twice*: One year they juiced the ball, another year they turned the strike-zone into the strike-tunnel.

The juicing scandal is one-third player stupidity, one-third owner greed and one-third fan thrill seeking.

Then why is it that Roger lied under oath to the Feds?
