Scandals

Celebrity scandals might be all the rage for women and for some guys it is too but what is going on in MLB right now is one of the biggest scandals ever. Why does it matter that 130 players were named in a banner substance abuse report from 2003?

Not only will it effect the way this sport is viewed by fans, it can have potential impact on players future Hall of Fame status, market value and the record books. When Roger Maris hit 61 homerun in 1961 to break Babe Ruth's single season home run record it was * in the record books. Why because he has more regular season games to accomplish this feat in.

So what does the latest questions due to this list of players mean.....it means a lot. It means people cheated. They are not who they said they were and the put toxic into America's past time. The list needs to be released. Below is an interview with one of the greats of baseball, Hank Aaron, the man whose MLB All-time homerun record was recently surpassed (2006) by another player. A player (Barry Bonds) who is known to have used a performance enhancing substance.
