All's Fair in Love and Steroids


theory. The Mitchell Report is a 409 page report constructed by former Senator George Mitchell. He now is a director for the Boston Red Sox's and the Law firm that put this report together is in Boston....mmmmmm weird but it gets weirder. I am reading the book Juiced by Jose Canseco and as painful as his writing is when he talks about steroid use in the game I do take him serious he is the "godfather of steroids" and when he makes it clear that at least 5-10 players in each club house is on some type of steroids, how can I take this George Mitchell guy serious when all these big name players so far that have been made public on this report have never had legit careers or are with the Red Sox's as of now? Mitchel was quoted asking " Selig to show restraint and not penalize the current players who's names are mentioned in the report!" ARE YOU SERIOUS?! This is what gets me ticked of. Because, this is my blog I can state a basis opinion all i want. But seriously, why did he even create this report if he didn't even want these dishonest players to be penalized? Example Roger Clemens. yes, he did play with the Red Sox's but if you look at his numbers with the Sox's compared to his numbers he put up with the Yankees its obvious that he did more good with the Yankees then with the Sox's and Mitchell being the avid Sox's fan could be bitter towards Roger. Why is his name singled out 82 times in this report and why is he the subject of nearly 9 pages? Don;t you think that those nine pages should be added to the already numerous amount of pages baseball all time leader for home runs Barry Bonds has? Correct me if I'm wrong but why is it that all the players names that have been leaked have had either decent careers or legit career with the Yankees. Roger, Sheffield, A-rod, Giambi......Weird I don't know if I'm just to passionate or going crazy but I think somebody needs to call this George Mitchell guy out. I am also a firm believer that sports and politics should not be mixed because it creates for a deadly combination.
