I'm not naive in thinking that baseball was all pure and honorable before steroids came along, but I certainly don't agree with letting a cheater back into the game. Okay, you did steroids, thanks for coming clean. Now resign your position of hitting coach and p*** off.

Maybe, but I'm not there yet. Maybe in another decade or two.

Another thing that bugs me is I could have sworn he said in his testimony that even though he wouldn't admit to them that he'd take every opportunity he could to speak against them. Was that not him who said that? If so, where the heck has he been? From everything I read, he went into seclusion.
