    So, do you accept the cheaters that didn't get caught? or is it NOT chetaing IF you don't get caught?> :lol:

    Its cheating whether you were caught or not. Some guys were just so stupid and juiced until their bodies doubled in size :lol:.

    Yeah, the overnight incredible hulk crowd was pretty funny. :lol::lol: :fp:


    SImply put, I'm not goingt o use the old cliche "it ruined the game for me," but I certainly lost a bit of interest in baseball once I heard all the roid controversy.

    And to say that there's no proof that it helps you hit a baseball, might be true, but its just silly. How does a physical enhancement not help you? Roids make you bigger and faster -- easier to cheat.

    a lot of hitting a baseball has to do with vision and flexibility, not how strong you are

    We are talking about HRs. No one is saying these cheaters didn't have incredible talent to begin with.

    it's all relative. getting bigger decreases your flexibility, which can actually retard your ability to hit a baseball

    Of course, but its a mix of both. But with strength, often comes quickness...You cant say that adding quickness to your swing will usually hurt someone.

    Also, regarding the idea that pitchers might have been on roids too -- there have been studies that suggest that pitchers will/might have come close to hitting their limits with maximum pitch velocity (approx.100-105mph)because the amount of torque needed to throw in excess of the those speeds is greater than the amount of force the ulnar collateral ligament (the elbow ligament) can withstand before giving out.

    So, there's another good baseball discussion -- Tommy John surgery is becoming quite common.

    If he passed out without a fracture, just imagine what a fracture would have done to him.

    I just saw the replay of this, he got drilled, it sounded like it hit wood. He immediately had a huge welt and bruise. Glad he's okay.
