So your point is invalid. On Pujols using steroids. Show us some facts and then we will believe you until then SHADDUP! Thanks.

I just started thinking about baseball 50 years ago because they were only playing a few games less then they are now. They had shorter travel but it was by buses and trains. How did they keep themselves up to play all those games? Were they getting drunk, which would be their drug of the day or what else? You guys have me thinking about these answers and how they are making me wonder about each instance. I love the home run balls, but not if they are artificial in how they hit them. Pitchers throwing heat isn't any better if it's not all natural either. I just don't know is it ok if everyone does it or should no one do it and what would the level of play be then.

I'd consider myself a casual fan at best - if my team is in it, I'm into it, if not - ehhh. I'd rather watch home runs. The purity of the game and most other things was lost long ago. The idealized version of baseball is just that - idealized. It's not reality. It's like Captain America - he stands for what America should be, not necessarily what it is. I guess I see it as this, and I'm admittedly a pretty cynical guy - people cheat in every business and every industry, so people doing it in baseball isn't a big deal to me.

Bottom line is, home runs are but a small, small, small part of the game, exciting yes, but not at all the most important. Double plays, triple plays, perfect games, outfielders robbing homeruns, there are so many exciting aspects. Again, you don't have to describe the baseball stadium atmosphere, I've literally GROWN UP in ball parks, from Rookie Ball, to A, AA, AAA and all the way up to the big show. I've been in them all. Bottom line, steroids jeopardize the purity of the game, the records being set, and the soul of it all.
