This is not to belittle the exhaustive report that ESPN ran today on the steroid issue and how deep it goes. It’s actually refreshing to get bits from guys like Wally Joyner on trying ‘roids and hating himself for it, or Rico Brogna popping the pills (he hated needles) even though he knew they were killing him. But hey, he wouldn’t have scored his two biggest paydays from Philadelphia without the juice. Way it goes.

Anyway, the article itself won’t shock and appall anyone, though MLB officials should be embarrassed by the fact that it widely known that the players were using a good six years before Sosa and McGwire led the Andro Parade.
