Feds to Supoena Over 100 MLB Players Who Tested Positive for Steroids

By Sean Connolly

According to the New York Times, the federal government will look to question 104 MLB players who tested positive for steroids in 2003. Finally the government is doing something more than just naming names like what happened with the Mitchell Report. I guess they finally realized that they all used them illegally and there may be more than one law broken in using them.

The feds got the test results from a BALCO investigation in which they seized several reports of players using performance enhancing drugs. Now, all those names mentioned in the Mitchell Report who said, “oh George Mitchell didn’t do the investigation properly” or “I never used performance enhancing drugs, he has no proof, just speculations,” will finally have own up to their use.

They will also have to own up to destroying the game that you and I love. Sure a bunch of juiced up fools crushing a ball 400 feet is entertaining, but the integrity of the game was ruined during the 90’s thanks to idiots like Bonds, McGwire, and Canseco. These subpoenas will now force players to tell the truth and reveal what they did to America’s game.

The government will ask these steroid abusers where they got their stuff from and we will find out just how much MLB players will go through to get big and make a couple bucks. The 104 names will be asked to give testimony to either federal agents or grand juries in order to find their suppliers and help clean up sports as a whole. If these players had any brains they would tell the truth. Just look at Bonds, Tim Montgomery, and Marion Jones.

So far the only way these players who have been caught for steroid use have gotten in major trouble is when they lie about it and Bonds with the news he received this week(Indicted on 14 charges) is the biggest juice filled example of that. Just tell the truth so that we can clean the game up, realize your a fraud, and move on from this steroid era.
