He had to have had brain damage at some point in his life.
No one could possibly be that hypocritical on purpose.

Yep. We need to check into that. Ron Oester had one dinger the year Rose arrived back in Cinci. A year later, he hit eight homers and had a career-high nine steals. I have always suspected the second baseman was on the juice. I was shocked to see that her wasn't mentioned in the report. For what it's worth, Rose hit only two homers in his final two years in Cincinnati. That was in about 650 ABs. Perhaps he was juicing, but he certainly didn't gain any power from it.

Alex Sanchez, who had four homers in 1,351 career at-bats, was the first player who tested positive for steroids. What's your point?

Well, you're either to young to remember Ron Oester or too old to find anything funny that doesn't involve Benny Hill.

Seeing Denny Neagle's name on the list, I guess once he got off the stuff, he was well enough to literally rob the Rockies with that fat contract they gave him at the end. Of course, he was also nailed on that little prostitution charge so perhaps it messes with your judgement once you're on (or off) the juice.

Not sure if it was posted elsewhere on our 134 Mitchell threads, but I loved Norman Chad's column today...he said (paraphrasing) if the Daily Racing Form can list horses on Lasix, why can't baseball lineups list the guys on 'roids?

Because the players aren't truthful about their use, for starters. And who would the info benefit, other than Pete Rose?

Thanks for nothing, Mitchell Report!

NEW YORK -- Baseball players and owners agreed Friday to more frequent drug testing and increased -- but not total -- authority for the program's outside administrator.

All players implicated in December's Mitchell report on peformance-enhancing drugs were given amnesty as part of the agreement, which toughens baseball's drug rules for the third time since the program began in 2002.

Everyone can go home happy now. He Whose Name Shall Not Be Spoken is out of the game. Fans can breathe a sigh of relief now that Jay Gibbons and Jose Guillen won't be suspended. And they'll keep telling kids to Just Say No!

What were you hoping for at this point? Public floggings? Rotten fruit?
