I'll admit that when I saw him speaking on ESPN I rolled my eyes... but after listening to him call out yet another player and actually hearing his words... he may be onto something....

Not with his numbers so far this season. He's been awful. Hopefully, he'll heat up when the weather does.

that's what i've been hearign on the radio.

he may be on to something after all. all of us were when he called out players and released his books.

yesterday, some guy called in on a sports radio show. this guy used to be a sports broadcaster and said everyone from the media to GMs and owners knew baseball had a steroids problem in the late 80s and throughout the 90s. yet, nobody did or said anything about it then. i guess it's now.

I thought you were trying to make me feel bad. Mentioning Santana would be more effective.

I hope so. I watch all M's games and am one of his biggest fans. So far he just looks old.
