Finally A Voice of Reason In The Steroid Scandal
I've written a few times how deplorable it is, how many MLB fans are sitting sedately, coming up with lame excuses why the BALCO scandal doesn't matter.
Well, here' something that indicates not all is lost.
It is right and correct that we, the paying public, be outraged and indignant at this travesty of fair play. We are among the victims of their deception. When we buy our ticket, it is presupposed the competition will be played honorably and by the rules. It is right for us to demand these things, and it is our right to demand that MLB give us the product we want, because it is our interest and dollars that ultimately sustain the enterprise. If we stopped watching and going to games, MLB would soon go away because they could not pay the players and support personnel for their services.
Damn straight, damn right. I applaud The Hardball Times for putting this article up.
