    That was the initial statement, and then he went on to say that Bush actually introduced and encouraged it. So our President is now a drug dealer? Hahahaha. Long time since your 40/40 days, huh Jose?

        Hitting 50 HR's over history has always been a great acheivement. I remember when Cecil Fielder hit 50 back in the 90's what a big deal it was.

        But now we're talking 60 to over 70HR's almost every year in the last 5. This by three different guys. The beauty about baseball statistics is that they usually hold up over a full season. That's why "on pace for" stats are useless. You could have 100 RBI at the break and be all but assured you'll end up with about 150 tops at the end of the season. It's just how it works out.

        HR numbers have stayed consistent until the last few years when multiple players all crushed Maris' record. Un enhanced, I could see ONE guy having ONE year against all odds and hitting up to say 65 homers. But when three guys smash it all at the same time, something stinks.

        They used to float around the 'juiced ball' theory, but I wonder if that was to deflect attention from the 'juiced player' controversy.

            Dan Patrick said Dave Stewart was on his show, and he said of Canseco, "He may be many things, but he's not a liar." Interesting... Smoke Stewart coming out and backing his man Canseco. More interesting stuff should come out after the book hits shelves.

                Dave Stewart is nothing but a punk imo. He's the same clown that played the race card when he didn't get the Jays GM job in 02. And then he went on the Jim Rome show about a year ago and once again procedded to rip the Jays for not hiring him as their GM.

You can't blame one and not the other. As for Sosa using a corked bat, thats a Fact, and that equal's a cheater

                    Don't let my name fool you, I truley Love baseball and it's probaly my favorite sport, and it bothers me to hear some of these star players used/use steriod's. It's just bad for baseball and is killing it.


                    Bonds- Hey Sammy I'm on this great cycle and nobody can evey track it in my blood, Sammy yo i'm a cheater for Life.

                    Sammy- Yeah Barry, I'm on some juice too, I'm also ot some cork in mt bat....
                    That picture is classic. That was after there little tift in spring training. Both have taken roids and I believe that big mac did too. I have no proof but I have a brain and have watched him grow from a twig to a giant and back to a twig now. Bonds did the same thing and now we know why. So I am suppost to think Mark didnt . I cant wait for the Easter Bunny to bring me a basket this Easter!

                    I still cant believe Sammy has never been named even once as rumor. His connection in the dominican must be very careful. Jistic makes a good point about the juiced ball. That phrase has kind of disappeared and I always wondered how true that was. How can they make the ball differently. So Wrigley gets a sack of balls that are juiced and PNC park gets some that are kind of juiced. hmmmm

                            I'm kind of curious as to who the big-time player is who Canseco accuses in his book that is yet to be announced.

                            There is apparently someone who is as big (star wise) as Bonds that Canseco implicates, but they are waiting for the 60 minutes interview and his book release to announce it.

                            I've looked at Canseco's career to try to cross-reference it with other player's careers and the only two big-time guys I could come up with are Tejada (1997) and.........none other than Roger Clemens (2000). Canseco never played on the same team at the same time as Sosa (which was my first guess). He came to Texas a couple years after Sosa had already departed there.

                            Liar or not, this is going to get very, very interesting. Especially if he implicates the greatest pitcher of our generation.
