We Admit to Rampant Steroid Use
He’s making a list and checking it twice, and we’re not talking about Santa Claus.
The most read list this of 2007 will clearly be The Juice List, sorry kids.
It should come to no surprise to many of you that we made the cut.
Yes, Jack of All Blogs admits to the use of anabolic steroids, human growth hormones and lots of Red Bull.
How else did you expect us to take this blog to the next level?
Former Senator George J. Mitchell, who was commissioned by Major League Baseball to conduct an investigation into MLB drug use, finally unveiled his 409-page report after much hype. A bit long and a bit late if you ask us.
We applaud the use of tax-payer dollars to help effort this investigation. Why create jobs or cut the murder rate when you can point fingers at professional athletes?
Players on the list include Roger Clemens, Barry Bonds, Andy Pettitte and at least one representative from every single one of the 30 major league teams.
People often ask how can we stop this “cheating.” I don’t need the 409 pages or the 20 recommendations Mitchell has outlined. I have the solution:
STOP CARING ABOUT GROWN MEN PLAYING A GAME AND DON’T WATCH
Eleven words and this snarky blogger just solved an American epidemic. I’m tired of hearing that we can’t punish players since these acts were committed before certain rules were in place. That’s all BS. They knowingly bent the rules to gain an advantage, thus creating a culture that is already engrained in our world’s children, teens and adults.
Do you understand how long it’s going to take to undo this mess?
This blogger is going to hold players, teams, owners and the league accountable by tuning out the game I’ve loved for many, many years.
I hope you’ll do the same. The only way to get them to change is to take the money out of their pockets.
And for the record, JOAB never lets anyone inject him in the butt. Ever.
“STOP CARING ABOUT GROWN MEN PLAYING A GAME AND DON’T WATCH”
Well-said. Honestly, I’ve never understood the big deal about watching sports unless perhaps you personally know the people playing. As in, it’s your nephew or the kid you babysit or something. I’d rather get beat up playing informal basketball, thanks.
