I'm feeling sorry for the modern jock and
their addictions to so-called 'performance enhancing
substances'. What performance exactly was enhanced?
The Marlins won not Giambi, Bonds, Sosa et al.

I miss the good old days when you could take the field
totally wasted and WIN the World Series. 86 Mets for example.
You got Doc Gooden, Keith Hernandez, Darryl Strawberry, it was
truly a party season. There was no enhancement at all, they
might as well have played with blindfolds on!

Now don't give me the good 'ol days stuff about Babe
Ruth. He loved his vices, and just because the substances
are different today doen't mean he wouldn't
have used them if they were available.
