"Kirk Radomski, who pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court in April to felony charges of distributing steroids and laundering money, met recently with former Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell, according to the report. He faces up to 25 years in prison and a $500,000 fine at his sentencing, scheduled for Sept. 7."

The following is a quote from Steve Phillips;

"I was often accused of being in the Mets' clubhouse too much during my years as general manager (1997-2003). I have to admit that I am hoping that there aren't any of my former players outed by this process as it would indicate that not only was I in the clubhouse too much but that I was also deaf and blind.".

Again, I ask why is Steve Phillips still employed by ESPN and allowed to give his opinion on the steroids scandal??

A Clubhouse employee has plead guilty to distributing steroids and Steve Phillips has admitted to being in the Clubhouse "too much". Can anyone say conflict o interest?? Same with Dusty Baker.

Ths is similiar to Dave Bushing owning and authenticating items while working for MEARS and then consigning them to Mastro. Mastro uses MEARS for third party opinions which are supposed to be unbiased but the main person at MEARS is authenticating and then consigning items to Mastro??

PS. This is the last I have to say about the steroid scandal because it upsets me too much. I say this because cheaters are cheaters and they are ruining baseball.

Board members will condemn other board members for possibly altering a card or cards but give Barry Bonds (among others) a free pass. Newbies will come on here with stories of finds and get crucified for little or no reason yet admitted cheats get cut slack.

All I have to say is remember the caution given about worshipping false idols.
