I'll drink to that!

A man named Bill Jenkinson wrote a book titled "The Year Babe Ruth Hit 104 Home Runs". It details how Ruth would have hit many more home runs if he had played in modern stadiums under modern rules. He will always be home run king in my mind (with all due respect to Hank Aaron).

A Druggie Hall of Fame makes perfect sense.

Been doin that since their last strike. Don't miss it a bit.

I quit pro baseball after the last strike. I quit pro basketeball when it became a circus instead of a game. Next footbal strike and I am outa there too.
I was a baseball junkie in the 60's and 70's,, now I couldn't name you 5 players.

With every new drug test,
players will always find a way to beat it.
Ala the joke drug testing in the NBA.
Drugs have been a part of the football culture since the 60’s.
The fact is, the pressure for players to juice up will always be there. Eventually, all athletes will be on some sort of stimulus, just to be able to compete.

Its funny how drugs get center page
but the gambling issues are never brought forth to the public eye.
No telling how many games & points over the years
have been altered due to gambling “payoffs”
(You can “bet” its over 100’s of games)
The problem of gambling it is easily
as wide spread as the problem of drug usage.
But of course, no one will ever go public with their alleged “bribe”

241362: If gambling is not a problme because the players are so rich, why was there a bounty system in place in NO. The money would have been insignificant. Also, 75% of professional athletes retire broke (per what I have read in the TW). Guys that take drugs to enhance their performances probably would shave a few points here and there too. No honor in professional sports anymore.

Ignore baseball and let it die.

It was important in the old days, but sport after sport has passed it by until it is a relic.

It has the worst athletes of any major sport, it is so drug infested--and has been for so long--that players are now forced to become druggies just to be able to compete, and it is by far the most boring sport.

Just the fact that players chew tobacco tells you all you need to know about this sideshow.
