If only because the indignant attitude shown by baseball writers and the league itself to the players from the steroid era is absolutely laughable. These phonies had no problem lauding Bonds, Mcgwire, and Sosa with praise (and press) when they were shattering records, even though it was plainly obvious they were juicing. Now that the cat is out of the bag they suddenly care about the purity and sanctity of the game? Puh-leeze.
