I saw Trot and Gaupo and was nu-uh, this list is moot. But damn, look at all the Yankees on the list.</p>
<hr width="100%" size="2" /> It's pretty interesting that a handful of the players named (Miggy, Gagne come to mind) recently signed to a new team.</p>
Ken Griffey Jr. was the best baseball player of the past decade. If these fools would have spent more time trying to replicate his swing than shooting up then they might have some respect. For the pitchers, Roger Clemens is a piece of shit. He tries to come off as this family man, but he's a roided up old man that jumps from World Series contender to World Series contender for huge amounts of money. Fuck Roger Clemens. Rick Ankiel? Either he did it while he was an insanely inaccurate bust pitcher, or when he made his big comeback as a hitter and fooled all sports fans into thinking that he was a good story. Fuck Rick Ankiel.</p>
I'm so ecstatic that Clemens is in here. Its a big FU to NY, Boston, Houston, and all of America who held him up as a golden boy even though it was only logical to believe that he was juicing. Other than that I'm not surprised at all, Tejada was obvious since his huge dropoff in the last few years, plus everyone who has played for the A's in the last 15 years should be questoined. Bonds was obvious. Pettitte isn't shocking, neither is Lo Duca or Sheffield.</p> Interesting to see Benito Santiago on there. He was clearly on roids, what with his 100 mph throws to pick off the base stealers whiel he was on his fugging knees. He used to live around the corner from me when he was on the Giants and I went to the same school as his son. Dude had crazy arms even when he was old as hell.</p>
I wonder if they will wipe any records (and rankings), like wipe out Clemens off the all time wins list. Restore Aaron as the homerun king, and give Sosa the single season homerun record?</p>

I remember my grandpa bought me an Eric Gagne jersey a couple of years ago when he was still with the Dodgers. lol. I don't know what ever happened to him, I guess he just lost his touch without the steriods or something</p>
Yeah, Gagne just fell off the face of the planet.</p> Benito Santiago, isn't he too old for BALCO? We used to make fun of him all the time back in the day.</p> Why isn't Mark McGwire on any of these lists being released. Is he paying off the news agencies? I went through the report, and McGwire was on 19 pages of the report (4.6%). He was one of the focal points of the report, yet he's not being reported on any of these lists.</p> Glad that none of Lee, Sosa, Ramirez, and Zambrano were listed in there.</p>
Interesting thing is Bonds is only listed due to his involvement in the BALCO investigation and trial.</p> </p>
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Denny Crane)</div><div class='quotemain'></p> Interesting thing is Bonds is only listed due to his involvement in the BALCO investigation and trial.</p> </p> </div></p> In the government investigation for his trial they found out that he had failed an MLB drug test. So he is already damned.</p> </p>
^^^ Maybe he got busted for smoking some pot.</p> I still think it's interesting that he's not accused, outright, by Mitchell of using performance enhancing substances.</p> </p>

(not that they acted on that information right away....). If he failed it for pot, they wouldn't have used that test as evidence for his perjury charges.</p> </p>
<div align="center">Not sure if anyone else noticed it, but before coming to Boston, Gagne was pretty much lights-out in TEX. The Sawx had to give up two top prospects for him to come fuck up our bullpen.</div>
