    Way to go, Junior. Did it without juicing, too. Because of that, and because you don't play on a team on the east coast... this story disappears by Friday.

    As much as I heart the Reds, he needs to retire in Seattle.

    Okay, whatever. Maybe he's juicing because we can't prove it one way or another. BTW, which football team with the cheating coach and the tainted superbowls have you been defending like a Spartan for the last year?

    At this point I don't really view any player from this era's accomplishments as tainted due to PEDs. Perhaps the BALCO guys, because those drugs sounded far and away more advanced than the run-of-the-mill stuff everyone was on. But in a sense, since everybody was cheating the playing field was leveled and I'm willing to give a pass to all of those players, assume that every last one juiced, and move on.

    Junior is a first ballot HOFer, and it's a damn shame he spent the second half of his career constantly injured and on a team with chronic suck.

    :lol: I arrived about an hour before game time, and was able to buy 3 tickets 12 rows above the marlins dugout. Amazing what that stadium would have looked like if the game wasn't against Griffey
