I remember when he was caught. What a bunch of jokers, these idiots. I'm ashamed to have grown up in the 90s, having fallen in love baseball. Now, in my 20s, I realize all the players I admired where a bunch of hoaxes. I pray to God the only guys who get in the record books from that era are Griffey Jr., Frank Thomas, Craig Biggio, and Greg Maddux. Obviously, there's more to be discuss, but baseball in the 90s makes me sick. My dad and I were talking about this: I wish they would just push the fences back 30 ft. around the arc. Seems to me that's guys do steroids in the first place. Hitters want to hit the long ball and pitchers want to be effective so as not to give it up. Get rid of the god damn home run. I don't care, I love the game so much. Willie Mays used to hit home runs out of the park when dead center measured at 440 ft. Now these wimps need steroids to hit over right field at 330. Albert Belle, pssh. Omar Visquel was the real star of those teams. Belle didn’t need roids, didn’t he just used corked bats? I remember when he was caught.
