QUOTE(YASNY @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 11:10 AM) That Hooten guy was awesome. He called the steroid users cowards. He hit the players, the union and management. I assume he was Burt Hooten's brother because I have read his son was Burt's nephew. Yea he was. I shut my door.. boss is pissed.

Those parents made me cry...

QUOTE(knightni @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:50 AM) I FOUND IT! Scroll down and click on Live Feeds: CSPAN3 Real Media and Windows Media are two options there. Cool thanks.

QUOTE(knightni @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:45 AM) http://www.CSPAN.org/ has a "watch" button on the main page, but I can't get the media player to play anything. Me neither... oh well.

QUOTE(knightni @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:32 AM) Do CSPAN or CSPAN2 have it on? Not seeing anything to watch it on the computer. I'm Tivo'ing it also so I guess I can just watch it later..

Anyone see any video coverage of this anywhere...?

QUOTE(knightni @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:23 AM) Was it Stabenow? She's an idiot. No, it was Brown.

QUOTE(rangercal @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:23 AM) It says figure skating on at 11 am on espn, which I am watching. I might switch to cnn. Oh.. LOL. I would guess they would stick with the hearings.

QUOTE(rangercal @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:21 AM) It says figure skating at 11am. They will stay with this.... right!? I'm listening on CNN.Com.. no figure skating there..

QUOTE(Spiff @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:18 AM) Two sets of parents with kids who did so; one college, one high school. For some reason I didn't think they would be together.. I don't know why. Makes sense that they would be.

QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:17 AM) Frank testify yet or does anyone know when he will? He's on the third panel. Probably not until after lunch.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:16 AM) Bunning did not pull any punches with MLB and the MLBPA. As a resident of Kentucky, he did me proud. "Bunny" is awesome.

Half hour recess while they go vote. Then the first panel is up - I believe that's the parents of a kid who was on roids and killed himself.

LMAO.. "the commissioner is in a bad position right now.. " That's an understatement..

Oooo.... alter the anti-trust agreement and TAKE AWAY the exemption... Bye bye $$$$$$$

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:10 AM) But you would think as a Congressman, you would do a little research. I'm not going to fault her. To be honest.. I hope this was last on her list of things to review with all the other problems in Michigan...

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:09 AM) Here's the problem with taking away player's records. There must be players in baseball who were using juice and didn't break any recaords. Maybe they averaged .280 and had 20 homers, but were juising nonetheless. Myabe those guys who not have made the bigs without juice. Aren't those guys just as guilty? They made millions of dollars off of tickets that we all bought.....and if so, where do draw the line? Maybe listen to the testimony.. he said "those that ADMIT they were using".

QUOTE(YASNY @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:08 AM) Oops. I spoke too soon. I withdraw that statement. LOL.. I was just gonna bob you.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:06 AM) Fay Vincent said he heard rumors when he was commish. He "left" in '92. My dad told me some stories from the late 80's... very, very detailed. And I've heard tons of rumors from some players (both former and current)

QUOTE(marsh @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:03 AM) also she must not have read canseco's book or she would know he implicated I-Rod, who last time I checked was a member of the tigers. Not all girls are as into the sport as those that post here.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:02 AM) Not exactly a secret. IMO, it started way before that.

Hmmm.. Bunning thinks that roids got huge as a result of the strike.. Specifically naming Mark and Sammy and the HR race

Senator Brown questioning why the Union has been dragging their feet on this issue. I love her. Also.. the Chaiman made a point to say that there are players going to speak today who are AGAINST roid usage.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 09:56 AM) I thought he did. What did he say when asked what he would do if he was commish then? He wants a 1 month suspention for 1st offense.. 1 year for second.. and OUT of baseball for 3rd.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 09:54 AM) I like the idea Bunning said that they should just be kicked out on first offense. Who's going to risk losing the chance to continue making $12M a year? He didn't say that.
