The Mitchell Report

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

Anybody else excited to hear who gets named? I'll be at a seminar at 2pm, so I'll have to check it out upon my return.

I think Pujols is the biggest name.  Clemens, but that's not a shocker.  Pettite.
 
 Oh, the just pulled the list.  Sorry.
 
 Brian

there have been some lists floating around, but nobody is sure what is truly accurate yet.  I guess we'll all find out at 2:00.
 
 Could be pretty devastating to baseball, I think...

I absolutely postively could not give a badgers bum...most of the fuckers are at it so what's the big deal???

Maybe I should be happy the Angels didn't get Miggy on Tuesday - it does explain his '07 numbers.

I guess I have better sources than you do.
 
 His name was on the MSNBC leaked list.

And will someone please explain to me why these guys wrote checks?!!?!!?

[godsshoeshine]

because they figured if baseball ever decided to care, they'd start caring about the present instead of trying to dig up the past in an effort to keep barry bonds out of the sacred sacred record book. which would make more sense...

Sources?  Why don't you just read the report for yourself...

I thought the same thing. I came across the report and wasn't even looking for it!
 
 I guess the board idiot isn't majoring in investigative journalism.

Former Sen. George Mitchell's report on steroid use in baseball released today mentions at least 16 current and former Orioles including second baseman Brian Roberts and recently traded shortstop Miguel Tejada.
 
 The others named are: current outfielder Jay Gibbons, who recently admitted using human growth hormone and accepted a 15-day suspension, and ex-Orioles Rafael Palmeiro, Larry Bigbie, David Segui, Jack Cust, Jason Grimsley, Jerry Hairston, Tim Laker, Gregg Zaun, Kevin Brown, Howie Clark, Todd Williams, Kent Mercker and Gary Matthews Jr.
 
 Other notable players mentioned include Roger Clemens, Andy Pettitte, Barry Bonds, Mo Vaughn, Gary Sheffield, David Justice Jason Giambi and his brother Jeremy. Eric Gagne and Paul Lo Duca were also named, both linked to human growth hormone.

amazing how many stories reported pujols and then didn't retract

[Mobius]

The details of Roger Clemens steroid use - following years of somewhat vague speculation - are the only thing I saw that added anything the new.
 
 Interesting that the report of George J. Mitchell, consultant to the owner of the Red Sox, made such a nice effort to throw Red Sox Judas / latter day Yankee Roger Clemens under the bus - along with Andy Pettite and the Jason Giambi (no surprise).  No Red Sox players of note are mentioned, although the incident where steroids are found w/ Manny Alexander in 2000 is discussed, and pre-glory days 'star' Mo Vaughn is outed.  I know that facts are facts, but . . .
