he admitted to using while a Texas Ranger.

That brings how many former Ranger that have admitted or been caught using Performance Enhancing Drugs?

Will be somewhat interesting to see how Yankee Fans react to A-Roid now.

There's a 103 more positive test results that they have not yet released, it will be interesting to see what names pop up.

I don't think most Yankee fans were particularly endeared to A-rod in the first place, so it will not have quite the same impact as some of the 'beloved' guys that stand to be exposed.

With the crappy economy and the new list of 'roiders, baseball might be in for a rough summer, attendance-wise.

I'm still trying to figure out how Bagwell has stayed under the radar this long.

I guess the media had to find something to spark interest with the football season being over. I'm a Yankees fan, but no more endeared to A-Rod than any of the other mercenaries they've brought on board in their quest to:

a) put the best team possible on the field (Yankees' opinion)
b) buy a championship (rest of MLB's opinion)

However, as it's been noted, there's another 103 players not yet named. Name them all at once and get on with it. It's data from what 2003? There were no rules against using at that time so get over it. Seems everyone in the public eye lies to save whatever they think is important nowadays so why would anyone be surprised that A-Rod has now been caught in one (or more)?

Flipping idiots that don't get the simplest rule you try to get across to your kids, tell the truth and the penalties will be far less than if you get caught in a lie ... and you WILL get caught.

That's a good point: there were no rules regarding the use of steroids in MLB until 2004, so anyone pitching a fit needs to look to the league, not the player.

And so what that he lied? Most people would have lied in the same situation. Move on. It's not like this will make baseball suck any worse. Hard to do that when the game is boring as shit to begin with.

the whole fact that the drugs were ILLEGAL without a prescription has nothing to do with it. Baseball didn't have any rules against murdering someone so if a Baseball player went out and murdered someone then it is fine because baseball allowed it?

IT'S MOTHER FUCKING BASEBALL. He's an adult, he put shit in his body. Good for him. If there were no specific bans on it (which there shouldn't be any btw), I don't see the problem here. He lied? Ok, great. He's a fucking baseball player - you'll get over it, and so will he.

Maybe someday, so will the federal government.

And did I mention? IT'S MOTHER FUCKING BASEBALL!? FUCK!

That's because everyone knows the Cowboys are filled with a bunch of criminals and retards. No need to harp on it.
