William,
Phil Niekro and Gaylord Perry also had direct effects on the outcomes of games when they used illegal substances to their advantage. Mantle being hung-over many times over the course of his career probably had some impact on the outcomes of games.
All I'm trying to say is that people make mistakes, and to hold that over their heads until they're dead just doesn't make sense. If you can't agree to that, then we'll just have to agree to disagree.
Mike
