Reactions to the Mitchell Report are still being formulated but many of you have shared your thoughts with us this afternoon. Here are a few that I think provide an accurate depiction of the fans reaction today ...
Kantwistaye - "Eric Gagne's first achievement as a Brewer: Getting on the Mitchell Report. Congrats Eric, you were so bad at obtaining steriods that an investigation with no power or cooperation was able to catch you."
"The fact that it is strongly believe that pitchers benefit more than hitters do should mean that we should be talking about how Clemens shouldn't be in the HOF and how we can't talk about him being the greatest ever because we don't know how many wins he would have or strikeouts or how much higher his ERA would be? "
Gearhead - "I still want to know why this is such a big deal. The circumstantial evidence was there that just about everyone used. Why the whole "hang them in effigy" talk?"
Seth - "At least now I know where Nook Logan got all that power from."
"Everyone else will claim tainted supplements. Mo will claim tainted Big Macs."
"Remember kids, steroids are bad, and judging by some of the guys on this list, they don't always help much either."
"Now how about someone do this for football. I bet we could get just as many if not more NFL players on a list."
Lobotomy Jones - "I'm sure in some cases the steroids probably gave them just enough help to even make it to the big leagues.
Steroids + talent = Barry Bonds
Steroids + 0 = Nook Logan"
ML31 - "This steroid thing is laughable. Every time Selig talks about the "integrity of the game" it makes me want to vomit. He has proved he has absolutely NO interest in the integrity of the game. He doesn't care about what made MLB the greatest game. In one respect, he is doing his job as the mouthpiece for the owners. He represents their interest quite well. That interest has little to do with the "integrity" of the game."
JewelOfSong - "You know, after skimming over the report, I feel like much of this I could have come up with myself just doing google searches. Although, it is nice to have it all in one, comprehensive place. One thing about it that does bother me is the naming of certain players name without much substantial evidence (ie. Brian Roberts)."
