So here we go again. Shame on the players. After all some make millions per year, playing a game no less. To be sure they are tremendously athletically gifted, and now a teammate or trainer says take these pills and it will keep you on top of your game.... for millions a year and no one is even checking. The market is full of devices to defeat drug tests anyway... for millions a year. And if you do get caught you have to go to treatment... for millions a year. There is no doubt in my mind its the players fault.

IMHO, baseball is like sex in this one respect � it's fun to play, dull to watch. So I don't watch it now that I don't have my Dad to watch it with. If this means that I don't have a dog (or even a bone) in this fight, well and good. But I wonder about the purpose of this investigation and the future of major-league baseball. IOW, what's the next step?
� Are we just to wail and moan about the decline of a wonderful sport? � or � � Is there now going to be some effort to arrest the down-ward slide and to promote yonder-ward improvement?
I hope for the latter and suggest across-the-league pregame tests of every player on the bench in time to determine whether he's clean enough to play in that game.
Let the past bury the past.
"Good enough" isn't.
Always take your responsibilities seriously but never yourself.
