Do players such as Mike Schmidt, Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, etc deserve to be docked because of amphetamines use?
Or is it not a performance enhancer, despite evidence by anti-doping experts such as Gary Wadler running tests, and coming to the conclusion that they are?

Facts get in the way of a good, hate-filled rant.

Well, in his book, Ball Four, Jim Bouton goes into great detail explaining that the use of "greenies" or amphetimines were all kinds of rampant during the late 1960s.
Congrats on getting all the facts before making a blanket statement... and an incorrect one at that.

well the fact that amphetamines were prevelant then are obsurd. i believe that amphetemines and designer steroids are only prevelant now. players such as bonds, giambi, sheffield, mcgwire, and conseco who have all been proven to have taken steroids should be docked.
