Steroids investigation & Bonds a Scapegoat for Selig.


I remeber a time when basball was the most boring thing to watch on tv, were the game play was so slow it could have been snails running the bases for all we knew. Its was a time when even the best of the league's power hitters would only reach between 20-25 home runs in a single season. That was the pre-steroid period, were baseball was losing its footing with the national audience. A time in which Bud Selig was despretly trying to find a way to lure people back into the stands. Baseball, once the nations national past time had been replaced and left behind by the NFL and the NBA. Then things out of the ordinary started to happen. People like Jose Canseco came along. Big men the size of a mountian, that resembled Bluto, the cartoon vilan from Popeye. These huge oafs started coming up to the plate and started taking the skin of the ball. Pitchers started throwing 100-plus miles per hour, and the speed at which the game was played increased drastically. Was it something in the water? NO, it was Selig and the power players in baseball stumbling on somthing potentially disastrous to baseball and embracing it with open arms because they could see nothing but $$$ (ChaChing). They had found a way to revive baseball and boy were they despret enough to go thru with it.
Now a decade later, Selig asks for a investigation! Why, so you can find out what you had know for years. To find a way out for himself, even if its with his tail between his legs. Its simply PATHETIC. Mr. Bonds is not the greatest of human beings, thats a given, but who would be. Anyone having to go thru all the crap he has had to take. Steroids were not illegal when he took them. Yes i belive he took them but so did all of baseball for all i know. He is being used as the scapegoat because he is the easiest to blame. He is about to break the holy grail of baseball records and he is the prefect target. Bud Selig, is a pathetic old man who will be uncover to show his true nature. That being of a yellow cowardly dog.
