March 17, 200521 yr QUOTE(Steff @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:06 AM) Not all girls are as into the sport as those that post here. But you would think as a Congressman, you would do a little research.
March 17, 200521 yr 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".

March 17, 200521 yr Oooo.... alter the anti-trust agreement and TAKE AWAY the exemption... Bye bye $$$$$$$
March 17, 200521 yr Bunning's right about the first offense, throw them out rule. $10,000 fine is nothing. If you say steroids are illegal, and a player takes them anyway, f*** that get them out.
March 17, 200521 yr LMAO.. "the commissioner is in a bad position right now.. " That's an understatement..
March 17, 200521 yr Author QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:08 AM) I just wonder what the rest of the world is thinking when they see the American government obsessed with America's past-time. As I see it the real purpose of this hearing was to show the nation & the world that we take our laws seriously & that no one is above the law. Yet I don't see that message coming out in these hearings. Its more than just for the game. This is a war on drugs. 500,000 of youth have used steroids. I think that is serious enough.
March 17, 200521 yr Bunning did not pull any punches with MLB and the MLBPA. As a resident of Kentucky, he did me proud.
March 17, 200521 yr 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.

March 17, 200521 yr Author QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 10:17 AM) Frank testify yet or does anyone know when he will? I believe he is last on the 3rd panel.
