Has the offociating been worse this year or am I just seeing more bad calls?
Seems like even simple things like in yesterdays game, there was a foul ball lined on the line first base side, it was caught in teh air clearlt foul and teh first base ump called it fair.
Forget about the bad call, rules say if the play on the ball occurs before first, the home plate ump is responsible.
Balls and strikes seem to be all over the place. way off the plate being called as a strike, way over the belt, strike. I know the rules say up to the letters but come on!

Disagree. We don't know how many are doing it. Even if it might be a lot of athletes. Who knows what amount "a lot" is? 
Is it 10%, 25%, 50%, or higher?
Whatever the percentage is of athletes who dope/cheat, I highly doubt it's all of them, although I know you meant this statement to be taken with a grain of salt.
Agree.

Agree.
I can't think of one good reason not to do it. I sure as fuck would have done it if I was a baseball player.

I don't, but common sense tells me that 100% of the league was probably not on steroids. I'm sure some players cared about their health, had some integrity, self-respect, respected the game, didn't want to cheat, etc. Even Canseco didn't claim steroid use to be 100%. Some former players have said it was as low as 25-30%.

“I’d play against these guys with one leg. We have to beat these guys. I hate the Cardinals. All they do is bitch and moan about everything, all of them, they’re little bitches, all of ‘em. I really hate the Cardinals. Compared to the Cardinals, I love the Chicago Cubs. Let me make this clear - I hate the Cardinals.”
