I watched Roger Clemons on 60 Minutes, and if I were a juror, I would have acquitted him. Were I his lawyer, I would insist that he take the 5th and invoke the privilege against self-incrimination.

Which sports town trains the most scrutiny on its teams, from all kinds of media? You got it. I love New York.

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.

The Clemens and Barry Bonds treatment proved that the by now all-too-familiar double standard quickly kicked in with a vengeance.

Now that the first storm of outrage about the contents of the Mitchell Report has subsided and the season of good cheer is upon us, let's take a look at the mail bag.

As the Mitchell Report points out the drugs were prohibited by MLB rules for decades. Furthermore, the entire unsavory process exists clearly in violation of state and federal laws.

We pretend we're surprised, were shocked, and demand asterisks next to each of the offenders records--the hell with that. Let's put one big bracket around the entire generation, 1985-2007, and asterisk that.

As we prepare for a new America on Inauguration Day 2009 we must remember to keep the steroid scandal as a metaphor of what we don't want to be.

Why deal with any difficulty when it can be smoked, drunk, swallowed or injected away? The candidates have their own version of this.

The sole issue that upsets us so much about the Mitchell Report is the sanctity of numbers, the alleged pristine-ness of records in baseball.
Danny Schechter | Posted 12.17.2007 | Entertainment
How naïve to think that a leading mainstream newspaper would indict men in power. No, this story was not about Busheviks or bankers. It reported on steroids by some baseball players.
Roger I. Abrams | Posted 12.17.2007 | Entertainment
None of this means that steroids were good for the game, but rather that perhaps they had little or no impact on the game. Those who have a fetish for the asterisk should put their guns away.

When one of these scandals breaks, the conclusion is "a few guys cheated, but we got 'em" -- as opposed to the idea that cheating has always gone on, and occasionally people get caught.

Pettitte's statement is defensive, petty, and hair-splitting; he seems to be engaging in damage control rather than making the heart-felt confession he should and still could.
