Baseball sucks

I cannot take any more of the basbeall congressional hearings. Sitting at home watching Roger Clemens and former trainer Brian McNamee l(in all likelihood) lie in front of congress makes me so sick I could throw up. For the past few weeks I have watched as McNamee insists he illegally injected one of baseball's greatest pitchers with growth hormones and steroids. He even went as far as saying he injected Clemens' wife with steroids to improve her body for the 2004 Sports Illustrated photo shoot. Today both parties are on Capitol Hill speaking at a congrssional hearing claiming their stories are accurate. Whether true or not, the fact remains that baseball has lost me as a fan. The league has by far the worst testing policy out of any professional league in America, and up until last season, had the lowest suspension time for such a conviction. Baseball representatives think they can continually have such pitiful policies without the repercussions and consequences. It is up to the American public to demand better policies and to demand for MLB to stop taking the fans for granted.
