    with arod, its really not all about that. its trying to knock the ball out of the dude's glove in the alcs 6 or 7 years ago. its yelling at the 3rd basemen when he's waiting to catch the pop up. it's walking across the damn pitchers mound earlier this year. again--he comes across not only as a douche, but as a bad guy. his douchiness combined with the whole cheating thing pushes him over the edge.

    i agree with the 24 hour news cycle though. it makes me hate our culture. case in point: http://deadspin.com/5603701/brett-favre ... e=true&s=i

    this should be none of our business. yet, somehow it is.

    jenn sterger by the way--100% hot.

    I don't really feel like arguing about every arod decision ever made. He sure as hell fucked up a few times but the Braden incident was not really one of them. As your boy Buster Olney says "you either vote for all players from the era or none because none of us know who was clean and who was not" (paraphrasing)

    I think that Brett Favre shit is fucking hilarious. I couldn't wait for that this morning.

    Pujol's stats are retarded good. People don't understand what kind of player we are watching.

    That's what I've said, but the people I usually say it too look at me like I'm crazy just because they're casual baseball fans. It's insane.

    When all is said and done - it may go Ruth, Pujols as the best players of all time.

    Yeah, it is really insane.

    Everything there is fucking insane. Career BA of .331, OBP of .425 and OPS of 1.048. The FUCK?!?!?!?!?!

    I agree, he definitely has a shot to be in that category. Have to include Ted Williams in that but yeah, it is fucking insane how good he is.

    Yeah, I hear ya, but I'm just saying The Babe because he's on another planet altogether. Greatest player of all-time. Didn't really look all too much into his stats until I was at that bar across from Yankee Stadium and they have all that shit on the walls and just looking at his numbers - especially as a pitcher - and they're ridiculous.

    Oh absolutely. Babe Ruth has the most insane stats ever. One of the the guys in the phillies thread said compare babe ruths and ryan howards first 4 years. Well you cant, because in his first 4 years he pitched 1,000 innings to an ERA under 2. It's unreal. What makes his home run numbers so crazy is that NO ONE hit home runs really at at time.

    It would take quite a while and would take a whole lot of digging. Maybe some weekend when I am really bored I will dig around a bit. I love watching that shit.

    It's just all so subjective, no one will ever know anything for sure and while it inflated numbers, who knows how many pitchers were cheating and who knows how many players were cheating overall. We all loved baseball then and we love it now. I fucking hate people that act like steroids ruined the sport. Everyone is at fault and steroids were part of the game for a while. It's not like it ruined anything for anyone besides some cranky old, nostaligc reporters. Steroids were part of baseball for a while and no one will know for sure who cheated and who didn't. I hate the phrase, it is what it is, more than anything, but it really is.

    thanks for the caps. do you own the cavs?
    "we're number 1! you're number 2! Suck on my balls! "
    arrogant much?
    attitudes like this drove me west.
    celebrity "romances" speak to a level of insecurity i cannot fathom, nor want to.
    By "we all" i am assuming you mean all NYers.
    happy to just be me thanks.
    Enjoy the traffic.

    it didn't ruin the sport. it just makes the main reason why it came back in popularity seem pretty fake. and it's tainted some of the alltime records and rendered them almost useless. i am really interested to see how ken burns deals with it.

    i think there has to be some mention of it though. if not an asterisk, then just some kind of acknowlegment. i would prefer an asterisk for all players that were found to be using. but that's just me.
