Economic struggles are hitting Americans hard - even the rich ones. There are millionaires out there who now only have six houses to go home to at night - and worst of all, some of them are unemployed too! (1078 words in story) Full Story By djcfla1, Section MLB
By David J. Cohen Since the steroid cloud has polluted athletics fans everywhere have debated whether certain players are steroid users. Did Barry Bonds improve ten hat sizes in four years or did he hit his head really really hard one day? Did Slamming Sammy get his power from giving grace to the lord or by slamming some needles into his body? Is Shawn Merriman now just lights out or is he still juiced up? With many players the glaring signs are there but there is no tangible proof. And unless a player couldn't cover up, wrote a book, or hired the worst lawyer in America it would always remain a debate. Until now. (451 words in story) Full Story By ClevelandWill, Section MLB

But MLB has not learned much in the past couple of decades when it comes to the integrity of the game, in obeying the law and in protecting the best interests of its athletes, its most precious commodity. (2127 words in story) Full Story By teekay, Section MLB
Ever since the day the Mitchell Report was released the baseball world has dealt with constant drama. Admissions and apologies have been offered and denied. Fingers have been pointed and judgments have been passed. Reputations have been thrown into question and fans have been thrown into unrest. But one quality of the report has reigned supreme over all others; it's entertainment value.
It's no secret that America loves a good Soap Opera. Not a drama, but a Soap Opera. As in a drama where all rationality and reason disappear and the story becomes a delightfully hilarious mess of childish idiocy... and for whatever reason, it's enthralling!

Picture this. You're twenty three years old, a third round draft pick, skipped school to grab that bonus, nothing to fall back on. This competition is fierce, and you've been left behind, lapped in fact. In an idyllic youth, a minor celebrity in a small town, you were the special one. Gifted. Bigger, stronger, faster, beloved by all, took pride in the popularity, destined for greatness. (1260 words in story) Full Story By Jersey Steve Wins, Section MLB

There is a perpetual circus performing in Major League Baseball. Every so often, between the lion tamers (Clemens, Pujols) and the trapeze artists (Ichiro, Eckstein), a clown emerges and steals the show. This clown is very different from others in two respects: 1)his head---not his shoes---are clownish in size, and 2)he makes fans cry instead of laugh. That's right, its Bondzo the Clown!

I have been thinking about the 'problem' of performance-enhancing drugs for a while now. With people like Barry Bonds and Jason Grimsley consistently re-opening the topic after something they do or something they say, I am getting tired of hearing about all of the players who use these substances and have little patience for the media's treatment of them - what usually consists of two or three days of coverage of them and then, well, nothing. We need to accept the fact that we have come to a time where steroids and human growth hormone are a fact of life. These performing enhancing drugs are probably never going away.
