Baseball players and owners toughened their drug rules again Friday in response to outside criticism, agreeing to more frequent testing and increased - but not total - authority for the program's outside administrator.
All players implicated in December's Mitchell Report on performance-enhancing drugs were given amnesty as part of the agreement, the third major modification since the program was instituted in 2002 following accusations players were abusing steroids.
This is another case of "all is forgiven." What kind of message is this sending to the youth of America?
I do not have to answer that and neither does anyone else. We ALL know the answer.
This agreement is crazy!!!

That's why I don't watch baseball any more...
The Vegas Art Guy: Makes me yearn for the good old days of Mickey Mantle, Roberto Clemente, Willie Mays, Joe DiMaggio, etc. These players today play for the love of the money, not the love of the game.
I totally agree with you on that. But between the HGH, $$, labor stoppages and general horse crap, I simply no longer care.
The Vegas Art Guy: It has gotten crazy, however I still like to take in game now and then to relax, see some baseball, and visit with friends. I have been going to minor league and college games in our area. It is nice to see the younger players perform.
