Politics, News & Issues > US News Was "roid rage" the cause of the Benoit murder-suicide?: 1 of 11
In regards to the thoughts of how Chris Benoit acted in the night of the double murder-suicide, there has to be more to the story than simply stating roid rage. It is very common and was used by the national media because they hate WWE and wanted something that would be considered a ratings grabber. Whenever something is inv... More..
Politics, News & Issues > Baseball Does baseball need a salary cap?: 4 of 38
Major League Baseball at the very least should consider a salary cap of some sort. It does make it extremely difficult for any team that isn't a super heavyweight market to keep any players and does bring up the farm team perception. The New York Yankees would hate the cap because it would put a stop to the free agency marke... More..

Baseball is not a dying sport because if it had been, would people still be attending games in the first place? That is something that needs to seriously be looked at and talked about a lot more.

He's not going anywhere this season and probably could remain a Laker his entire career. Chicago was rumored to be the place but that didn't happen. If Kobe really wanted to leave, he would have and that's the end of that. It wouldn't do the Lakers any good to keep him if he wishes to continue playing for a team he doesn't w... More..
Politics, News & Issues > Baseball Should Barry Bonds face jail time or just fines for lying about steroids?: 3 of 21
If Barry Bonds gets convicted for lying under oath about knowingly using steroids, then it should be jail time. Special treatment should not be given to anyone regardless of celebrity status.

Politics, News & Issues > Baseball Should Pete Rose be allowed into the Hall of Fame?: 5 of 29
Major League Baseball has banned Pete Rose for life for gambling. He is right now the all-time leader in hits, which he was famous for as a player and doesn't seem to see anyone coming close to breaking that record in the first place. Now, the question is should be he allowed back into the game of baseball so that he can be ... More..
Politics, News & Issues > Baseball Why steroids are not destroying baseball: 4 of 23
Are steroids destroying baseball? Well, it certainly isn't going to help now is it? Players probably have gotten off the material and it took Congress to force baseball to do something about it. I've always believed that fans never cared and probably still don't about who does what as long as they see Home Runs hit. However,... More..
Politics, News & Issues > Baseball Will the Mitchell Report and Bud Selig's actions wreck the credibility of baseball?: 3 of 16
The Mitchell Report came out giving a list of performers who had used some form of steroids. Did it really wreck the credibility of Major League Baseball? If it truly did, would people still be watching? There was no difference made and it wasn't anything new in the first place. Though to be fair, it did have a minor role of... More..
