1I can only hope that it is harsh and pisses everyone in baseball off. The owners and players share the blame on this one as well as the commissioner’s office. To be honest, I don’t think there are only 50 guys using in the league though. That’s a bit of a disappointment in my mind.

2Everyone involved in baseball over the past two decades - - commissioners, club officials, the players association, the players — shares to some extent in the responsibility for the steroids era,” There was a collective failure to recognize the problem as it emerged and to deal with it early on.”

3I agree with Steve that everyone involved in baseball is at fault. However, I really feel sorry for those athletes who did not use steroids but had to watch the others around them all doing them.
