HAPPY MITCHELL REPORT DAY!!!!!!!! Clemens named.

[Roast]

Sammy Sosa is some kind of freakin' evil genius mastermind living in his island lair.

 

I'm so happy sammy was not on that list!!!!!!

 

=D>

 

I can keep on telling myself he didn't use steroids now.

[Burtonbell]

The commissioner should "Forgo discipline on players named in report..."

"...unless it is detrimental to the game."

 

Wow, what a shocker. Whats the point?

[Sammy Sofa]

Sammy Sosa is some kind of freakin' evil genius mastermind living in his island lair.

 

Or was just smart enough to not use a personal check.

 

And for baseball players, the probably qualifies as genius.

 

Exactly. Remember the level we're talking about here, and how Sammy seems like not the brightest guy around, yet he leaves no trail. I must give him kudos for keeping his operation TIGHT.

Mitchell's report exposes a "serious drug culture within baseball, from top to bottom," fingers MVPs and All-Stars and calls for beefed-up testing by an outside agency to clean up the game, The Associated Press learned.

 

This kind of pisses me off. People try to act like baseball is the only sport that has a steroid problem. I'd like to see a steroid probe of the NFL.

 

That's kinky.

Glenallen Hill..... :(

Matt Karchner pitched for two teams in Major League Baseball between 1995 and

2000, the Chicago Cubs and the Chicago White Sox. Members of my investigative staff

contacted him as part of our effort to interview former major league players.

 

Karchner said that during spring training in 1999, he observed two of his Chicago

Cubs teammates inject themselves with steroids in an apartment that Karchner was sharing with

them. Karchner declined to identify the players. He said that one of the players brought the

steroids to the apartment but was afraid of needles and therefore asked the second player to

administer the shot. The second player injected the first player with steroids in the buttocks and

then injected himself.

 

Later that season, Karchner was offered steroids by certain of his Cubs

teammates. Karchner would not disclose the names of players who offered him steroids, but he

said that the conversations he had with them involved the general cost of steroids and discussions

of “stacking” to build lean muscle necessary for pitchers. Karchner did not report either of these

incidents to anyone at the time.

 

I saw that. Wood was injured in 99 though, right? So I don't think he'd be one of those guys.

So what the hell is the point of this report? We all knew performance enhancing drug use was somewhat widespread in the sport of baseball. It's not like the Mitchell Report provides an all inclusive list of users. If we knew the name of everyone who used, then the report could be beneficial..As is...I'm failing to see what benefit this provides...?

It's got to be the shoes.

Exactly. This is what a lot of us have been saying.

Farnsworth? Jose Hernandez? Benito Santiago? GlenAllen Hill? Sosa?

Josias Manzanillo

 

Damn you cruel fate! Manzanillo, too?!

 

Life may no longer be worth living.

[SouthSideRyan]

Gagne.

There is no point, this whole report is so pointless. A whole bunch of heresay and second hand, "iffy" information. It wont even change anything, there will always be players of all sports that look to gain an advantage this way, and there will always be new drugs that are more advanced than the testing.

[Sammy Sofa]

I swear to God I just heard Mitchell try and compare what's going on in baseball with the Northern Ireland situation.

 

Just go away.

[YearofDaCubs]

The real report is nothing like the one posted earlier. I'm surprised about Gagne but most of these guys were no-brainers to pinpoint.

I highly doubt that Karchner would have been sharing an apartment with any of those guys besides Farnsworth.

[UMFan83]

Which 1999 Cubs were taking roids? Kartchner identified that there were at least 2 of them, but the passage makes it seem like several players were.

Manny Alexander

Glennallen Hill

 

Both on the 99 Cubs and named in the report...

Well, he talks about players sharing an apartment, so it would likely be younger/"poorer" players.

There are the biggest bums on this list.

Why because the others aren't pitchers?

He needs to inject himself with some perspective.
