ESPN: is declaring that "baseball's winter of discontent ends today," while reports surface that the FBI gave MLB a heads up about 'roids over a decade ago. Of course, "...Baseball officials denied they were told of steroid use."
Cute joke! I am still laughing a bit! ESPN should JUST UP! Jose may have written the book, threw a bunch of people under the bus and told us the "truth" about Madonna! ESPN is going out of thier way to stir things. They are pulling out all of the stops on this one. I have been listening to Dan Patrick pretty smuch declare way against Jose all because he wont come on his show. Shameless! "The best steroid scandel coverage there is" is what they call it. I call it overkill. I am really glad spring training in starting maybe we can get back to normal-maybe Once and for all: Do chicks really dig the long ball?

um, i think your sentiment "maybe we can get back to normal-maybe" is a little, slightly, a tad, and possibly misplaced, considering what normal has meant.... does anyone else see a parallel with the rise of MLB and the steroid scandal to the global domination of american corporations and the accounting scandals of past few years? I do. Both bear very similar symptoms.

Looks like MLB gets their "intelligence" for the same folks who advise Condi and George.

I was thinking the same thing, terrapin. Of course, about ten years ago, who was a managing partner in the Rangers? Coincidence? I THINK NOT.
