The list that has all the names of players that tested positive in 2003 for using performance enhancing drugs is suppose to have at least 100 names on it, but the names that have been release already seems to just be the big names in baseball. If you pick on the big guys you gotta pick on the little guys.
Every month or two 1-3 names are release from the list. In the beginning the list was suppose to remain anonymous but names are being release.
Do you think they should just release the entire list and get it over with or continue to drag it along in and out of baseball season which is putting a damper on the game.

They should do it all at once and get it over with. Im a soccer fan though anyway so I really don't care much about it.
I remember in the 90s telling people online that some of these guys looked like cartoon characters. Their muscles came out of my TV and into the living room. I never see anybody look like that in public. I knew some guys back then had to be on something. I use to work out with weights and I can tell you that you won't look like that no matter what you lift. -
Those test were taken as a survey, and not supposed to be public and that was the condition for the players agreeing to the test to begin with. Breach of contract and the players should be getting themselves lawyers and suing MLB.
With that said, I believe cheaters should be, when caught treated as such. As example: Rafael Palmeiro, who averaged 16 homers per year, then went to average 37, should have his home run total balanced at 16 per year. Same for pitchers, 10 wins then 18 - 20 wins. so when their career is over those are the numbers they retire with, Not inflated numbers that moved them closer to the Hall of Fame.
Today with David Ortiz name coming out and considering he said a player should lose a year if caught, then says nothing today like I'm sorry, but the twins released me and I needed a boost to keep my career going. Bothers me, but they should not have released that information which was supposed to be sealed. -
Sorry @ melindaville
GO YANKEES
BTW, I'm sick of the bull crap also.
I rather hear that Mickey (Mantle) had a barroom brawl and then whacked 2 homers at 500 feet each.
