I just don’t understand.  In 2003 there was a massive search, they probed everywhere.  They compiled a list of every player whom they had proof of taking performance enhancing drugs.  It’s now 2009, and we still haven’t seen this list.  Frankly I’m getting tired of these one or two names every 6 months.  It’s ridiculous!  Someone, somewhere find this list and just release it.   I’m a big baseball fan, I follow all the division races, I laugh at the Nationals also… but this is killing the sport for me.  It makes me want to stop watching, it’s becoming apart of baseball.  Which player will be next?  Every time another name comes out its like, does anyone play this game fair?  Of course they do, but it’s a perception thing.  Now we have to go through this whole circus for Manny and Ortiz from their days on the Boston Red Sox.  They’ll have an interview, read a statement…. Take some questions… and then the talk shows for the next two weeks will discuss if they were remorseful enough. 
Finally, when it’s all done… another name will be released!  It’s crazy… 6 years of this.  If the whole list gets released, it would be like one massive blow to the sport.  We’d all be angry, there would be lots of apology press releases, and our heroes would fall.  But then we’d move on, and heal.  Like pulling a band aid off… let’s just get it over with!
Instead with this one name every six months baseball is slowly bleeding to death, this problem of performance enhancing drugs lingers.  It’s always around… I for one am over it.  I just don’t care anymore.  Anyone who hit a lot of home runs took something… and we’ll learn about each and everyone over the next 100 years.  Someone find this list, let’s move on.  There is so much more we should be talking about with Americas past time.
