		<description>did anyone hear Curt Schilling&#039;s comment from his blog?  That Clemens&#039; Cy Youngs should be taken away if he can&#039;t clear his name!

Then when &quot;they&quot; figure out that teammates of Schilling were using while winning the Series with Arizona and Boston, they should take away his World Series ring too?  This is just getting out of hand.  Like Bob Costas said, the way to handle all of this is to put the record holders into the Hall of Fame based on performance, however, at the beginning of the book, or first stop in Cooperstown, state that there was a &quot;steroids era&quot; from mid 90&#039;s to the turn of the century, and it is believed that a good number of the players used and to take that into consideration when giving players recognition on their Hall of Fame status</description>

		<description>It&#039;s been good that all this broke after the season was over and the players et.al. could not hide out with their enablers in the clubhouse, but had to face the court of public opinion.

Can you imagine the children of these players saying &quot;Daddy, how could you??&quot;

Of course records, trophies, awards, and salary should be taken back - let&#039;s apply the Marion Jones&#039; punishment to all these cheaters.

I hope Congress will also subpeona other members of MLB as well.  We need to hear from the Managers, General Managers, coaches, owners etc.  They are all culpable.</description>

		<description>I admit--I was fooled. The 2007 ALDS Gm 4 winning pitcher openly kept his HGH and paraphenalia in some clubhouse fridges.(AP story yesterday). Yet the mass media has written and screamed constantly, slammed and defamed Andy Pettitte 24 hours a day for the past week, dissected and second guessed every moment of his life. He&#039;s listed as the #1 biggest loser today in a national sports publication. Until yesterday, I had completely forgotten about Paul Byrd, hadn&#039;t known he kept his PED&#039;s in more than 1 clubhoiuse fridge and even came up with the story that &quot;MLB knew about it&quot; (same AP story) about which so far they haven&#039;t publicly agreed. If any behavior called for the stripping of a team record, it&#039;s Game 4 of the 2007 ALDS, Paul Byrd the winning pitcher against the Yankees. He did not come forward on his own. He did not go to see Mitchell or MLB til this week. He did not confess. His name was leaked by the SF Chronicle during the World Series with enough documentation that he couldn&#039;t deny it. And he said it was for a dental problem. Yet no 24 hour a day ranting on all radio, newspaper, internet for the past week about what a fraud he is. His use is a tad bit obvious, he has a recent controversial win about which no one has objected, and he lied about why he took it. The only thing I can think of is ...the mysterious timing of his &quot;outing&quot; seems to have accomplished 3 things:
1. Kept him completely out of the past week&#039;s defamatory and irreversible slander, libel and innuendo. 2. Kept his outing from positively helping the Yankees. 3. Allowed the media to focus mainly on Andy-which they&#039;ve done. Paul Byrd also has expressed strong religious beliefs--that would be great fodder too. Miraculously, somehow, some way, the mysterious timing of Paul Byrd&#039;s &quot;outing&quot; has had devastating effects. But not for Paul Byrd. It&#039;s been heaven for him.</description>

		<description>Mitchell, his integrity, and his endeavor are as suspect as Clemens. The decision to recklessly name some players as opposed to a more comprehensive list of users is troubling.</description>
