Posnanski: What If We Are Wrong Again About Steroids?

A very worthwhile discussion to have. I've always felt about steroids what this new study seems to conclude. |

baseballs allure was anyone anysize can play it, wee willie keeler was 4'9 and he won an mvp. When people were jacked up on roids, it took that part of the game out.

Just for the record I have been saying for years on this board that the responsible use of steroids was safe and the moderate use in conjunction with HGH has been used for years in Europe to extend the quality of life when used as an anti-aging floormat. I have also been absolutely blasted and called every name in the book for saying that.

It might be interesting to do some comparisons with trends that happened in college baseball. I don't think they use the same ball as the majors but have no idea. It could help to find commonalities that would lead to stronger conclusions either way.

Steroids save lives and give people a higher quality of life everyday. We also know now that low testosterone levels are FAR more dangerous than even abusing high doses of test. |

Can anyone actually prove that the alleged changes in the ball help you hit HRs? Or that the changes even happened? The suggestion that MLB is keeping it quiet in an era where opening your mouth is a ticket to a book deal and a spot on Oprah is laughable. I get what he's saying, but I don't see a lot of weight behind it beyond "what if".

That's pretty much entirely irrelevant to the way steroids are being used in the topic being discussed.

You keep ignoring the downside factor. It could make somebody hit less HR's

Here is something to think about. This year HR's and hitting are way down. The only change prior to this season, they started testing for amphetamines. |

I'm not sure I get what you're saying.
