    jackie robinson stole home 19 times in his career. mark mcgwire hit a zillion home runs. which of those do you think is more exciting?

    Then why were ratings in the steroid era significantly higher than they are now? It's a good point because this is their job. You are going to tell me that it's a good thing to ban a substance that helps someone do their job better?

    And by the way, how long has your friend been on adderral? Give it time homie, if you think that sh!t isn't bad for you, you are completely mental.

    refusing to play by the rules is actually very very poor job performance.

    your argument is absurd. why dont you just claim guys should use titanium bats because it increases job performance? there are rules, it called a sport!

    you would be in the minority. this is the future of baseball.

    jose reyes playing once every 5 years to play for a contact is not exciting.

    You want a cookie now or something? Pat on the back? Standing ovation?

    well at least they for now the ridiculous roid era seems to be over. what a terrible time that was. so many fun parts of the game were missing. why bother stealing a base, some gorilla will bash a homer.

    if baseball goes back to what it was i will be sad.

    lasalle, do you understand the concept of "rules"? do you understand why cheating is not actually good job performance?

    never said it was. Arguing with you is like arguing with my wife anyway.
