Bring Back Barry Bonds?
Bonds remains the worst nightmare of MLB, not because he juiced up, but because when we watch him play we remember that the people who run MLB ignored the steroids issue while it was profitable to do so.

Hamilton was finally able to kick his addiction and return to baseball. He was fortunate that his addiction was not handled as a criminal manner, sending a powerful message to society.

Why is baseball prejudging Barry more than any of the others who have been taking HGH?

ESPN cameras elbowing C-SPAN; Henry Waxman whapping his steroid gavel. Arlen Specter plumbing "Spygate." It was so inspiring. And then it just ended...until now.

I can see a Madison Avenue agency whipping up a campaign for all new, improved, better tasting, miracle HGH. "Does he? Or Doesn't he? Only his trainer knows" could be the start.

At the very time the players were bulking up and shooting up, they were also looking up. Skyward. To God. No home run is hit, no called third strike thrown, without heavenly assistance.

We filled the stands in the "steroid era" because those performances were so wonderfully enhanced. Watching players who were well past their prime playing like kids was just too delicious to resist.

Maybe I'm blinded by my desperate love of baseball, but I actually don't feel duped by the steroid scandal. Compared to Pete Rose or the 1919 Black Sox? At least these f***kers were trying to win.

While it is easy to point fingers at baseball players, let's slow down for a moment and take a look in the mirror. We may be surprised to see how much "performance enhancing" goes on all around us.
