I think it's pretty interesting actually. I always thought alot of baseball players corked there bats. I mean what do they get if they get caught? A couple game suspension. But for a guy who is trying to make a name for himself 20 points in your average, a few extra homers and extra base hits can sure make your stock rise and get you a big contract. I guess I'm asking how many of you think that baseball players cheat. Like do you think pitchers still doctor the ball a little? Again if your a guy trying to make a name for yourself, I'm sure there is that urge to add a lil movement with some sandpaper or whatever they use. I think cheating is a little more prevelant then we think. WOndering what you all thought.</strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Oh yeah.
