Yeah, but some of those entries are only there because of second-hand evidence, I.E. hearsay. For example:

"Marc was aggressive the other day, therefore he must be on steroids*."

*Either that, or he's drinking Coca-Cola.

I don't understand why anyone wouldn't want an asterisk next to their name -- it's like getting a gold star.

EdipisReks -- can I get an asterisk next to my name?

true, yet this entire report is designed for public consumption and bullshit anyway. What difference does it make that lo duca, for instance did some juice on LA when juice wasn't banned yet? How about lenny dykstra? I mean wtf... If your trying to invalidate someones reputaiton, based on what you descided morally about something now rather then how it was back then, isn't that hypocritical?

Trainers were looking to get edge, and where it may of helped, it did... It wasnt a magical elixer (someone used it along those lines i think) that makes u good. It's talent plain and simple that is what makes you what you are. I hate arod, but look at him. Any signs of juice? the man can hit. Bonds was significant before he did steroids. Yet I still hate the man and his huge stupid looking head, lady voice, and scumbagness all together. Does it make me hate him more that he did steroids? I dunno, he is what he is. If anything, steroids ruined his game in the long run. The guy is pretty useless.

My real point is, the mitchell report seeks to show the world there's steroids use in baseball, and this is some horrible corruption? It's only what you make of it, if your going to cry over the statistics that are destroyed, well, dont u think they woulda used back then if they knew any better? The institution of sports uses technology to improve the game, make it more competitive... athletes do whatever they can get away with. such is life. Athletes are entertainers, sports is a buisness. This isn't something to sigh about really, it's just part of the evolution of it all.

hope u guys enjoyed my rant. please do argue with me ;).

Marc -- I have to admit to being of two minds on the subject. On the one hand, yeah, I fully anticipate a day when "Running Man" is going to be a reality -- at which point, the use of steroids is going to seem like a minor infraction compared with other rule-breaking. On the other -- what about Babe Ruth? Shouldn't he get kudos for doing what he did without the use of steroids?

I fully embrace the asterisk.

no.
Good thing, too.
