OT: The Mitchell Report

I really hate Major League Baseball. The league is a tainted mess. Nothing against SB Nation's great baseball bloggers (including my boss, Blez), but the whole damn league is dead. Guys like Roger Clemens are getting named as steroid users in this report. This means the Yankee World Series championship runs Clemens pitched in are tainted and meaningless. It's just a big pile of crap.

I really hope to God the NFL isn't like this. I know they have a far better steroid detection system, and (unlike the MLB) they actually suspend steroids users, but still. It's just scary and sad how bad things are.

I love the MLB
and I'm excited for this report. I can't wait to see some big names that I hate to be ousted. I'm just worried some of my heroes will be ousted as well

Man
As for me, I'm just glad that Jason Varitek isn't named on the report. He's my fav baseball player, and some people were saying he would be on.

Typical Football Elitist
If you think football doesn't have the steroid, hgh problem that baseball has you are just very ignorant.

The only differences between Baseball and Football are that Baseball's problems are made more available to the common man, I believe footballs illegal substance policy used to be private until the 3rd offense??? I could be wrong on that, however, even without a public figure being incriminated, I am a firm believer that Football has a substance abuse problem just like baseball DID.  Do I think it involves some of the huge superstars like baseball's problem does?? No I don't, but I'm also not foolish enough to think the NFL is the clean great business that some seem to think it is.

Right on
If I had to guess, I would say that there's much more steroid use in the NFL.

a little drastic
Umm, reaching to say the whole league is dead and the yankee WS wins are meaningless with clemens (wasn't it just one season they won it all?) on the team.

I love people who act like roids magically make someone good. Look at all the list of guys who were named and a lot of them flat out stink. Clearly roids have less the impact that people seem to try and imply. Look at Merriman...comes back from his roid suspension and continues to get sacks like crazy.

The roid stuff is way overblown but hey, it is what I expect humans to go on about since it is so simplistic to do.

Oh and no doubt the nfl has a lot of roid use so acting like MLB is so bad because of this is a little silly.

Not all Colts fans are from Indy.
