Yeah Dusty I guess that is kind of true.

Except most "communists" suspected by McCarthy were really innocent and most of the guys in baseball are really juiced up beyond recognition. So what do you all think. Are baseball players being treated unfairly and are most of them on the juice or not?

I don't think that "most" of the guys are juiced. I do think, however, that it is more then the 5% that needed to test positive for the testing to continue this year and next year.

It's probably maybe 7-8%, but really none should be on the 'roids.

The penalties suck, though.

If I were Sosa's manager, I would complain and bitch about steroid testing too.
