Baseball was making money and the fans were filling the stadiums , everyone was happy . There was only one man who had the power to ban the roids and he chose to do nothing because baseball was more popular and profitable than ever before . Part of the commisioners job is to make rulings protecting "the good of the game" . I doubt that Kennesaw Mountain Landis would have decided
to ignore the obvious abuse of steroids , 'for the good for the game'.

Of course MLB looked the other way all this time. And thats total BS too. But to put all the blame on Selig and MLB and none on the players is crazy. The players are the ones cheating and ruining the history of baseball by using roids to destroy all these historic records. The fans see all the records being broken by cheeters and thier finally getting pissed and want heads to roll. Starting with Bonds and hopefully leading towards Big Mac and Sosa, and anyone else who has ever used roids and cheated. Just because the cheating was ignored for so long doesnt mean we should keep letting it happen! Lets end all this crap once and for all. When a record is broken i want to know it was done naturally by a players good old fashioned hard work. Not by sticking needles in thier asses and useing funky creams and HGH. Thats just F'ed up.
