I appreciate the insights, but...
Honestly, I don't care about steroids in baseball or any other sport. I want to see a level playing field and all, but if every player or most players are on a PED, then it creates a sort of level playing field. The players know that they can get away with certain shenanigans and it may only be lightly enforced.
From what I gather, the thing that bothers most people is that modern PED-enhanced players have an unfair advantage in the record books with the non-PED-enhanced-retired players. The old players also worked in a completely different environment. Babe Ruth was not required to compete against African-American baseball players, for instance. The bottom line, for me, is how does this effect the entertainment of the game that I am watching? Would it really make a difference if a player for my favorite team was on PEDs? Would I like my any team less?

Weak Jonathan
I never said you can save them all. Just pointing out the delicious irony of the timing between your previous trash talking and Papelbon's blown save.
"How many homers did the Slugging% King (ARod) hit in the 10-1 blowout last night? Real clutch, that guy..."
That doesn't make any sense. Anyway, Redsox fans need to shut their traps about A-Rod. If the Union had allowed A-Rod to take a pay cut he'd be playing for them right now and, in typical fashion, you all would be going on like he was the best thing since sliced bread.
