please fanhouse, who gives a shit if a guy who has 27 career home runs and will be a lifetime .270 hitter has taken peds? besides, everybody knows that the face of the game is signed to play left field for the brewers through 2015.

For Ripken, I think his record speaks to the benefit of being clean. I’m not expert, but what I have heard is that the PEDs make an athlete more prone to injury. If he was taking them, I think he would not be baseball’s “Ironman.”

For me it’s Frank Thomas and Junior. Those guys were my heroes growing up (and I’m a Cubs fan, obviously). If one or both of those guys gets tainted with this, I will truly lose all faith in my childhood baseball heroes. Let’s be honest, Pujols and Ortiz have used. If people are going to convict Sosa based on appearance and hearsay, Pujols and Ortiz are definitely evil…I mean steroid users.
