It is cheating, it is illegal. I totally agree. I just can't sit here and talk down about these players for this when it's really just the norm for this sport an others. There plenty of players that still excel without the juice and I absolutely love that. But I just don't see this whole report as anything "groundbreaking". It's purely sensationalism for the sake of looking like this commission is doing something right.

The report can be downloaded here http://assets.espn.go.com/media/…
It's 400 pages and I just read some of the Roger Clemens stuff. It's not so much shocking as it is a letdown because I am a huge Yankee fan.

most telling lines from the CNN article:
"Despite the steroid controversy, Major League Baseball enjoyed record revenues of $6 billion this year, and for the fourth year in a row, the league set a total attendance record. "Just like Wu-Tangs says:
