Who cares about the Mitchell Report?

Question

I mean, most of these guys that did these substances at the time were not banned by the MLB. So who cares.


One thing I do know though is that Bonds broke the HR record on illegal substances, just imagine if Ken Griffey Jr never got hurt all those years, he would have crushed the record. You know he didnt take anything, you can tell by looking but imagine how many HR's he would have if he did.


One last note, none of these players came as a shock to me. I mean at the start of their career, these guys were little and in a matter of a year or two they blew up. Thats the biggest sign right there. You would of been an idoit to think bonds was not taking anything.

Answer 1

are you crazy...Garry Matthews Jr not a big guy been the same size his whole career...Matt Herges same size you are just a punk who is buying into the bulls**t in the report yes some of the players are going to be found guilty...Steroids break the body down over time and I think we can all say that Griffey's body has broke down I not saying he took them

Answer 2

looks isn't everything. did you know chuck knoblauch was using? he doesn't look like it. but he was. and who knows if griffey didn't do it too! you never know. there will be more fall out to this because there is another company in albany that had their hard drives and address books confiscated by the FBI. and it is possible that there are pro players, addresses, and what they purchased are on there. you might even find some NFL players on it too. you never know. it sucks, but i would rather have them exposed than for some or all to completely get a way with it.

Answer 3

It seems to me that you claim you don't care about it, but my question to you. If you really don't care about the Mitchell report, why are you asking about it in the first place? And I bet a lot of people are wondering the exact question that I asked you. Well it seems to me this Mitchell report is a big deal in baseball, which it took him 20 months to do this work. Why it took this long for him to do it, I have no idea. But it was to report who took steriods, and who didn't, and maybe these baseball players might not have admited it to it anyways. But don't forget that Bud Selig said that he is going to handle this case by case, so who knows what punishments will be handed out.

Answer 4

I really do not care about this report. For one some of it was hearsay. Except from the ones they had canceled checks from, none of them are recent. Their is a current player that was named and he sucks and has one career homer, so evidently it doesn't always mean steroids=more power. Their are a few more current players. So I could really care about this list, maybe if they proved that they actually took steroids and it proved that it helped them gain more power, until then all this did was ruin their repetitions (deserved, maybe) in the eyes of the kids that look up to them.

Answer 5

the report should have been done, by someone with no affiliation to any mlb team, just like testing should be done by an outside party. I am sure there would be people outraged if a board of directors member of the new york yankees conducted the investigation.
