Dirty little secrets

I know people who have never gotten over the Baseball STRIKE! Millionaires on strike, did piss people off, ALOT! There is a dirty little secret going on at the MLB and all professional sports. Records are made to be broken- yeah, by drug dealers and cheaters!

There was an old SNL skit about the All Drug Olympics- which isn't too far from the truth with all professional sports. Do you really think an average size guy and can play with 7 footers, without a boost of some kind? I just hope nobody pulls there arms off, trying to lift something impossible, as they did on SNL.

I'm the guy who says; "Let them all into the hall of fame! But put a slice of orange next to their names. So fathers can explain to their children; They were juiced!" So kids will realize the true value of cheating- it sells the shit out of tickets! We know there are 107 reasons from the 2003 season, that proves this true. And some players dare argue that some substances on the list, we're illegal at the time, so it's unfair to those, to expose the list.

That's the whole problem! It wasn't against the rules, only the intent of the rules? Which is only a moral issue, that (particularly) people making millions of dollars, never quite seem to understand.

I wasn't a big fan of Jose Conseco when he was playing. I always thought he was an arrogant jerk. Enjoyed the hell out watching him loose a ball in the sun, that bounced off his head and out of the park- that must of hurt in more than one way? But I've become a fan, with all his whistle blowing. Yeah, he's a jerk, always has been, but he's an honest one! All the other's, not so much.

Juiced ball, a juice big splintering bat at the plate, it's all good for the game, and the fans are all winners, seeing untouchable record after record broken. Professionalism has nothing to do with integrity, or honestly. Don't teach your children falsehoods, teach them to be ethically challenged rule benders instead.

What there really needs to be, is a rule to limit the number of cheaters any one team can enjoy. Just to give us upright people, a false sense of hope!
