They **** steroid users, but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t like the game.

Because ticket prices compared to the average household income is at an all time low. The average ticket cost under $23. Tell me what other professional sport out there has prices so low that any high school kid can afford to buy a ticket. Of course you’re going to set attendance records when you’re giving away tickets. Other real sports have the luxury of selling the tickets.

I do not **** the players who have stooped to taking performance enhancing substances. I **** what they do and the people who give and procure it for them But the vast majority of players have noting to do with the illegal substances, so I watch follow.

I reserve **** for Nazis, the Klan and other similar groups and people. But sports no, these are just games.

I asked that same question myself some time ago. Much of the steroids issue could be contrived by the media, I guess. As for me, it does bother me that players are “juicing” up at the rate that it appears, but I still have faith in the game and too much love for it to turn away.

Oh yeah, why is Arod listed up there? Are you Canseco?

I think you have no right bringing A-Rod into this conversation. He is clean, period. There is no evidence at all that suggests anything about him using PED’s.

Anyway, in answer to your question, it’s because we love baseball. We can accept the fact that (a) baseball is a great game (b) people cheated, but that doesn’t mean everyone cheated and (c) we have to assume that from now on, most players are going to be clean because of the increasing research, tests, penalties, and public scrutiny.
