Steroids - House study

Most ironic, Conseco came out in my opinion looking much more credible than McGuire.

Love the way Palmaro handled it. Very direct, no parching of words, "I have never taken steriods." I believe him. Sosa, not as direct and seemed to have little to say. Didn't need an interpertor during his home run chase press conferences way back when.

Agree that Conseco should have MVP award stripped, however, it was not against rules of baseball to use them. How ironic is that, something can be against the rules of society, but not against baseball rules.

Let's give the home run record for a season back to Roger Maris!

BB2005,

We can probably agree that the worst effect of steroids is the damage to the players (pro, minors, college and HS). Next most damaged is the game itself. What is baseball without its "STATS". Roger Maris's record was right up there with

7 no hitters
56 games
755 home runs

You get the drift. The game deserves respect. Just like the Blacksox and gambling, this hurts the integrity of the game itself. Instead of Judge Landis we get Selig and his inept drug policy.

Only time will tell the damage to Conseco and McGuire's health.
