MLB steroid scandal

This hearing is great. It's like watching a bunch of 9th graders rounded up in the principal's office explaining why they pulled the girls skirt down.

:lol :lol :lol

Palmeiro and Schilling are very articulate. McGwire and Conseco sound pretty dumb and Sosa is obviously hindered by language a bit...

Haha, Canseco.

"DONT FUCK WITH BASEBALL -- THEY'LL FUCK UP YOUR LIVELIHOOD!!!"

I bet Selig is fuming... :lol :lol

:lol

Pretty obvious that Big Mac is guilty. Palmiero sounded pretty convincing in his denial, didn't hear anyone elses.

Thomas and Schilling weren't there as accused juicers. They were there cos they have spoken out against 'roids before. For what it's worth, he said he's never juiced under oath...

This is priceless entertainment. All of them are blatantly lying on some of these questions and even some of the better speakers are looking pretty bad.

McGwire.... :lol :lol :lol

its sad/funny how when asked to speak to the youth and tell them why they should not use steroids not a single player mentioned anything about health.

What channel are you guys watching this on? I saw Schilling speaking earlier on C-Span, but now they're discussing other things besides baseball.

ESPN News...

He's playing stupid.

More like "plain" stupid. At least try to salvage a bit of dignity :lol

Ah, ok. Yeah, I'm watching now. If they ever make a movie out of the proceedings, they need to get James Earl Jones to play the role of this black Representative who's asking the questions (didn't catch his name). :p

McGwire should have all his "titles" stripped from him. What an awful performance on his part. And Canseco is also very transparent in his need to be in the spotlight.
 
So I'm watching the hearings, away from the computer, and I come back to find this message from a friend:

Deerhu0---4 (5:23:55 PM): what are you slamming mcgwire for hes not the only one that did them and atleast he has enough courage to be their you need to join the real world and start slamming that punk ass bitch bonds also quit sucking his fucking dick

Auto response from InconspicuousLie (5:23:55 PM): McGwire: Steroids is bad.

lol... what an idiot.

Deerhu---4 returned at 5:23:55 PM.
Deerhu---4 (5:24:23 PM): and thats the facts
Deerhu---4 (5:24:26 PM): punk

:lol :lol :lol
 
Holy shit, Christopher Hays(R) is absolutely drilling these guys. Shouting matches..."I don't even know what the hell you all are doing."

:lol :lol
 
Just think..if people had voted the Dems back into power in Congress, we'd have these entertaining hearings on issues like the reasons for going to war with Iraq and 9/11 :)

i feel bad for selig, i think his image is tainted because donald fehr is a slimey son of a bitch. i really think selig is trying to make the game better, and he's being sincere.

did mcgwire go from first ballot hall of famer to possibly never getting in today?

I liked how that Manfred guy would get all defensive and get all worked up when somebody pushed him a bit :lol

Yeah, Manfred simply rocked -- even though he's an idiot.

:lol :lol
 
I hate society.

Fat asses stuffing their fat mouths with Big Macs = Acceptable
Someone injecting Test to increase muscle, lose fat, with less fatigue = Bad

The government seriously has much better things to do. I think steroids are bad for youth who are still going through puberty but when you're an adult, I think its fine to use them as long as they know the risks.

when steroids increases the level of competition, it makes it seem to younger athletes that they NEED steroids just to compete. All through the amatuer ranks (high school and up) the athletes tend to do whatever the big leaguers do, so STERIOIDS = BAD

They had a meeting about road infrastructure last week. They do other things, it's just that C-Span and ESPN took time to shine the cameras in the courtrooms to watch our politicians shit on 'America's heroes'
