Roger Clemens? What a shocker...
Rumor has it around town that Bagwell and Pettite are on the list. And I'm sure less-than-36-hours-on-the-team Miguel Tejada will be mentioned later today.
GREAT DAY FOR THE HOUSTON ASTROS

According to
this, Joyner admitted two years ago to using steroids.
If this report lives up to all the hype, that site will be largely irrelevant by later this afternoon.

Yeah, Joyner admitted 'roids.
Wouldn't be shocked by anyone being on it.
The only person I hope isn't on it is Edgar Martinez.
This is a great day for Barry Bonds, incidentally. It doesn't make his legal trouble go anywhere, but it helps him out quite a bit otherwise. I know, I know, you still hate him etc.

I'm calling bullshit on that list or the Mitchell report. 40 something people since 1995? Half already known? That's that bullshit calling.
I guess the whole circus is bullshit, so why not let these bulls drop more loads.

Do we really want our elected officials spending their time and our tax dollars policing pro sports?
I love pro sports, but I recognize its "just a game", I don't need congress trying to attention whore by holding "hearings" about trivial things like which roid head shot the other dumb lump in the buttocks or who rubbed "the clear" on who.
Its way too fucking gay

God I've hated Wally Joyner for so long, ever since he was deemed Carew's "worthy" replacement.
Long live roid-free Carew!
[uh, unless he's in the report, which would stink...]

There's nothing that can be done about the Steroid Era - it happened. Unless they go college football on us and void scores and records. But that won't happen.
When it's looked back on we'll all just have to decide for ourselves how to interpret the era. It will impact whether some players get into the Hall of Fame, but the era a player played in always affects this. If you played in the 90s you'll need like 6-700 homeruns to get in.
But it wasn't just the power hitters it turns out. No player named would surprise me.
