So Baseball is full of cheaters....

Well so called purists you are offically dethroned from your moral high horse. Your sport is about as dirty as any other. This comes as no suprise to those outside your sport. So where does baseball go from here?

Re: So Baseball is full of cheaters....

Who ever said baseball didn't have cheaters in the game?

Every sport has people who try to bend/break the rules. Doesn't mean 100% do it though.

Obviously you've been in the shadows for quite some time Stoney. Anyone with even a small amount of knowledge was well aware that there were some athletes out there that acquired an out of bounds advantage. Every athlete is looking for an advantage to enter their respective hall of fame. If it takes a little creative enhancement to do it .... they'll try.

Now come out into the sunlight and take a look at the real world. Gotham City is an imaginary place !!!

Dang, baseball ain't full of nothing but saints and do-gooders?

Nah, I don't believe it. Next thing you're gonna tell me is that FairyWorld doesn't really exist.

Re: So Baseball is full of cheaters....

I think you guys would be surprised by the amount of steroids in the NFL. It's not like it doesn't exist there as well.

Or even in the college sports, sadly.

Re: So Baseball is full of cheaters....

Baseball has a guy in the HOF that has all but admitted to being a cheat when he played by doctoring the baseball.

Phil Niekro was on national TV shown with sandpaper

Don Sutton was filmed sticking his finger in his glove and coming out with vaseline on it

We have a lot of cheaters in the game...always have.
