    I think/thought it was no tag if you edit before a reply.

    I'm pretty sure it's based on a short period of time, not a reply.

    I am just so sick of roids.

    I guess the analogy I can use is having a really hot wife and secretly thinking/knowing that she is cheating on you. You know she will always be there the next day, and it feels really good when you see her, so you try not to think about what she is doing when you are not there.

    As a fan, I honestly do not need to have this story break the day of a ALCS Game 7.

    Roids is like shoveling water. You might get some, but it will always be coming in faster than you can work.

    Fuck.

    Is there any sport not mired in this?

    Don't say hoops either with man-child LeBron James.

    Tennis? Fuck, like I want to watch that.

    Hello hockey!!!

    True

    The bad guys are a lot smarter than the good guys, and this causes so much doubt in my mind.

    I was posting in the spirit of common sense after watching him in person as a 19-year-old.

    I have watched a lot of pro and college hoops, and I cannot even start a list of guys who should have been a college freshman but were that thick and muscular.

    Are you saying it's impossible to be thick and muscular at 19?

    Not like that. Not moving that fast.

    Most people did not rasie an eyebrow when Sosa and Mac were crushing 70 HRs.

    Hey, I'm just jaded today because of the Byrd story. I feel like Agent Mulder.

    Oh, and Rick Ankiel hit two home runs in his last 24 games.

    That's a pace for what? 12 for an entire season?

    9 Hrs in his first 23 games, .350 BA, I think like .250 after the roids story broke and only 2 HRs.
