Tell me who hasn't taken steroids, and then I might be surprised.

I totally agree with this statement!

Oh, don't get me wrong; I think that steroids were very prevalent in baseball up to 2004 and still exist to a lesser degree today, as I think is the case for all professional sports, not just baseball. I just thought this was interesting in that the identity of the 104 players was supposed to be anonymous. If I was one of the other 103 players, I would be a bit nervous.

Not to mention, there have been a lot of Rangers linked to steroids (A-Rod was a Ranger in 2003).

Christine, I agree with that too - I'm sure that steriod useage was rampant in baseball prior to 2004 - those 104 persons named on that list probably weren't the only ones. I also think that for the next few years we're going to hear all kinds of "name-dropping" from that supposedly anonymous list. And at this point in time, with this all now 5+ yrs behind us, I don't honestly care who used steriods and who didn't. I'm sure it's tainted stats and possibly championships, but knowing who did and who didn't isn't going to change those stats or championships at this point. It should have been dealt with long before now - like at the time when it was happening.
