Is This The List Of Players Mentioned?
OK, let's do a little test of the Internets today: In the last hour, we have been forwarded a list of players mentioned in the Mitchell Report by about 25 different people. Is this list substantiated? No. Is it from an MLB official? No. Do we have any reason to believe it's anything but random bunk?...
Last Chance For Blatant Mitchell Report Guessing ... But There's No Guessing On Clemens
We're not sure if this says more about the significance of today, or simply a statement about us, but just about every email we've gotten today has included the words "Happy Mitchell Report Day." Hype is fun. Particularly now that Roger Clemens is attending the party....

What The Mitchell Report Could Possibly Mean

The Barry Bonds CourtTV Business Begins
Barry Bonds is going to be arraigned in San Francisco in about 20 minutes or so. We have a hard time firing ourselves up about arraignments; it's pretty much just a bunch of guys in ties saying about 10 words so low that we can't hear them....
Barry Bonds Could Really Use Johnnie Cochran Right About Now
Considering the charges against him — and the public opinion forces, going all the way up to President bush — one would think Barry Bonds' legal team would be coming together and preparing a fierce, scorched earth strategy to take down what are arguably pumped-up charges. One would be wrong....
Somehow You Know This Will Involve Kevin Costner
The news you've been waiting for is finally here: The Barry Bonds steroids case is going to be made into a movie!

It Was Never About Barry, And Of Course It Always Was
The key point to remember in the Barry Bonds indictment that went down yesterday afternoon is that we really don't have any new information. Whatever your thoughts on Bonds, it's clear that the government is out to get him. You might think he deserves it. He probably does. But there is no smoking gu...
Barry Bonds, Consider Yourself Indicted
Well, just when you thought it was safe to bid on a guy who injected cattle steroids: Barry Bonds has been indicted by the BALCO grand jury....
Apparently, They Didn't Want To Make Golic ANGRY
On Thursday, we casually mentioned that "Mike And Mike In The Morning"'s Mike Golic admitted to taking steroids on his show. (Well, not while doing his show. You know what we mean.) Co-host Mike Greenberg did a "moving right along!" dipsey-do, and no one would have noticed it if hadn't been for thos...
Let's Guess The Steroid Users! Fun!
The Boston Globe had the scoop — a scoop it later backed off of, but no matter! — yesterday: Eleven free agents are mentioned in the Mitchell Report. This may no longer be true, of course, but bah! This sort of revelation is the reason the Internet was born: Let's get to speculatin'!...
Why Steroids Make You Strong And More Famous
Just in case anyone forgot: Rafael Palmeiro tests positive for a steroid and an entire Hall of Fame career is destroyed. Rick Ankiel is prescribed HGH by a doctor when it's neither illegal nor banned by baseball, and he's a disgrace to the story we all once admired. Jaguars defensive end Marcus Stro...
Baseball Remains SO Tough On Steroids
The New York Times this morning confirmed something we all pretty much suspected: Baseball's steroid "tests" are so easy to usurp and foil that you'd have to be an idiot to fail one. (Or Mike Cameron.)...
The NFL Loves Those International Roiders
The NFL has long gotten a free pass on the whole steroid issue. Rafael Palmeiro is a cancer on his sport, but Shawne Merriman gets a really cool Michael Mann Nike ad. And now Roger Goodell is just throwing it in your face....
We Are Shocked, Shocked To Find Steroid Use In Women's Track
Apparently there were still humans on the planet who legitimately believed Marion Jones hadn't taken anabolic steroids, but for the rest of us, Jones' "confession" was a confirmation of what any reasonable person had known for quite some time....
