FanNation - The Republic of Sport

Well thank god! I thought Selig was gonna try and blame someone other - than himself. I am so relieved. Selig is a good man and he has done the best with the mess that he could have stopped....years ago. I mean players do drugs. Period. Heck everyone does drugs....other than a very slight percentage of people. Dump on ALL players.....they being doing steroids. It is ALL about - the money. Greed. Greed is Good. Other than that.....Selig is a pawn of the owners.

Selig never has, nor will he ever, do anything that would hold the owners responsible for anything. That is why they put him in the job. He is/was one of them. A commissioner whose focus was on the best interests of the game was never what they wanted.. They have had them before and will never allow that to happen again....

omg.. orly????

who didnt see this coming.

It's like most everything, turn a blind eye to what is wrong as long as your ratings are up and you're making millions. Meanwhile when the **** hits the fan just blame everyone else but hold no one responsible, unless of course you have the perfect scapegoat. Perhaps it???s our fault, we the fans. Why not? If we had stopped watching when Mac and Sosa were murdering balls every 7th at bat, the advertisers would have cut back on what they paid, which would have caused the owners to cut back on salaries, which would have caused the players to go out on strike, which would have...........oh well, I thought I could make it work some how that it was our fault and not the players, management, owners and MLB, but I guess I'm not that smart or perhaps I just can't bring myself to sell a lie like these guys can and do.

Selig is a P.O.S. No ifs ands or buts.

Selig should fine, and suspend himself, he should then go and do community service, someone should pay, and as the figure head of the "drug culture" he has allowed and encouraged, it is his head that should roll if noone else is to be heald accountable.
Money talks, non-binding internal investigations walk.

Who's a great Cluster? Selig or Bush?

This should be titled,.." To the complete shock and amazement of the entire sporting world, Pud Selig will not seek to punish the people who pay him fifteen million dollars a year! "

I guess there is some logic buried in there....why screw the other idiots that pay you millions of dollas?

Puppet

Tough call. Bush went looking for something that was never there (WMD's) and Selig never went looking for something that was right in front of his face (PED's)

If Elijah Dukes has clean zoo cages, Bud Selig should have to mop up after peep shows.

For the rest of his years.

again....other than to aggravate and confuse fan nation, what was the point of naming all these names then?

I'm waiting for all the slander suits to surface from all the players mentioned in the report.

It is the smokescreen before the nothing.

Baseball can say they had a big investigation, got to the bottom of what was going on, a very respectable head of the investigation said so. then baseball can say, "we instituted the most stringent outside program in any proffesional sport, maybe sport in general", depending on how they stack up against Olympic testing.
What they don't, or won't say is that the whole thing stinks because, like Selig, MLB will directly control the whole program and pay the salary of a non-indepent head of the testing. What a job that has to be, the person in charge of the testing will make millions as an administrator of an organization whose job it is to appear like it is doing something while MLB will have all the leverage to get the testers to do whatever they want. Big giant smokescreen.

I'm waiting for all the slander suits to surface from all the players mentioned in the report.

Now that would be an interesting development since there isn't a lot of hard evidence around. Could this happen? Holy wow.

With Donald Fehr in charge, anything is possible. I actually think it could, especially if no one is going to get punished.

"again....other than to aggravate and confuse fan nation, what was the point of naming all these names then?"

I don't know about you, but I certainly sleep better at night knowing Andy Pettitte has been outed.

<sarcasm alert>

Andy Pettitte has been outed.?

Andy Pettite is gay too? That's a bad combo to be gay and a PED user. I hope he's not also a PEDophile.
OK, that was pretty bad.
