Mike and Mike are Idiots

So I was listening to Mike and Mike this morning on the radio and just about had to pull over and hit someone. Sometimes I wonder why we have National Media when they are all so East Coast Bias, with the few exceptions for the West Coast lovers and John Madden who has a man crush on the all time leader for INT's thrown in the NFL. This morning they stated that we can't look at teams of steroid users and look down on that team or second guess their success....BULLSH*T!! Manny and Papi testing positive in '03 and you think we can't second guess the Red Sox titles in '04 and '07. I can do whatever the hell I want, and I choose to say they are crap in my mind. We are not talking about a couple of role players on a team with depth, we are talking about two of the BEST hitters in baseball at the time. They were far and away the best and most feared duo in baseball at the time. I know we can't predict how much PED's help a player, but they obviously help quite a bit or Bond's wouldn't have hit more home runs in a 4 year stretch in his late 30's than he did in all of his 20's. Of course Mike and Mike won't call them out like they should though because of fear of hurting the feelings of the poor saps in Boston who haven't had a team win a World Series in 70 some years in my mind. The biggest reason you have to call out the whole team is there is absolutely no way that ownership, coaches and teammates are not aware of these things. It doesn't happen.

I sure wish that a few Twins would have been juicing in the 2003-2007 seasons. We might have won a few more games. Could you imagine if Luis Rivas was hitting 15 home runs a year what that would have done to our line up? Or if Torri Hunter had put on 15 pounds of muscle and hit 40+ a year? Instead Twins fans were left to go crazy when he put up back to back 20 HR seasons. I have been against steroids from the time they showed up in baseball as a problem, but since according to Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb (aka Mike & Mike) every team was doing it, I wish every Twins player would have so at least we could have another World Series....of course if that was the case those two idiots would be making a big deal out of it.

To make matters worse TDee & T Dumb went on to say they felt sorry for Selig.....Really??? The guy who promoted baseball with McGuire and Sosa - two guys who looked like they kick 2 different kinds of dog sh*t out of Andre the Giant - is someone we should feel sorry for in this situation??? NO!!!!! Selig should have been fired years ago. He knew the entire time players were doping, but he wasn't going to say anything because his precious sport is getting crushed by the NFL in popularity. The Home Run chase is what brought baseball back. Selig deserves everything he has coming. He sucks. Period. When he was busy trying to contract the Twins because we didn't to give the RICHEST owner in sports a new stadium he should have instead been working to contract himself.

  1. Oh, it's so good to know you can entertain me even from Columbus. However... how do you plan to talk about food from Columbus? I'm pretty sure Chuck E. Cheese is gourmet there...
