    Bubbler, funny stuff.

    The thing I love is that many of the same people that say they know everything about a very complicated subject such as drug & performance enhancers in sports & have Mark convicted with flimsy evidence.

    Can't work You Tube when most kids can

    That's tight,
    __________________________________

    Typewriterhill,

    I am almost speechless at that "argument".

    Let's see Mark not talking now somehow changes or nullifies how he performed in MLB?

    Psst....don't look now but how much is Giambi, Bonds, Clemens, Sosa, Landis, Gatlin, Marion Jones, Lance Armstrong, Palmeiro, Shawn Merriman, many of the Carolina Panthers (including the punter!), etc., etc., etc., etc. talking about the past & yet you want to hang Mark - great.

    You know your right Mark's the villain.

    Mark's stats CLEARLY = HOF no one disputes that.

    So, this boils down to some HOF voters (many with limited knowledge on this subject) trying to find BS reasons to keep him out of the HOF.

    Here's a thought, why don't you go hang out with that pencil-neck punk Lupica who knows NOTHING about this subject, OR reality in sports (did he ever even play ANY sports ever?), and couldn't find a gym if he had a GPS device implanted in his head & a seeing eye dog leading him.

    Seeing weak syllogisms such as what you posted...says it all.

    Look, you want to dislike Mark - fine, you want to disagree with &/or dislike me - fine, but at least have SOME clue & shred of decent/realistic logic to what your talking about.

    That is all I ask,

    John

    JDV - Did you play baseball? Because if you didn't then how can we listen to you? You don't even know what it is like.

    I think that's all the needed to be said. Like TypeWriter said, if Mark simply decided to bite the bullet and tell everyone what happened, this whole mess would die down. Like Hal McCoy (HoF writer from Dayton (OH), btw John) said when asked about the subject: "If Mark doesn't want to talk about his past, then I don't want to consider it."

    Sort of like when the journalism industry ignores past mistakes?

    Wasn't there a report saying Jason Grimsley implicated specific athletes? What ever happened with that? Wonder why it doesn't get mentioned much these days.
