David,

Here's a little bit of irony for you, it's possible that the baseball card(s) will save Barry. I'm sure that Bud Selig is worried about what Barry would say on the stand, that's probably part of the reason that he had his hands in his pockets when Barry hit the record-tying homer.

Bud also tried to muzzle Jason Giambi before he spoke with Sen. Mitchell.

The owners and MLB are trying to put some political spin on this whole steroid controversy because they have the most to lose in terms of prestige and money. Steinbrenner and other owners are probably calling the politicians right now to put a lid on this matter.

My guess is that the owners and MLB will be successful, and it will be a decade before we find out the role of MLB and the owners in this whole sordid mess.
