I'll start by saying sorry to anyone who's visited this site in the last week and found nothing but old news. I was busy, then on a short vacation. Everyone has a right to some time off, I think, but I should have posted a note or something.
Anyway, let's move on.
I was reading the remarks from Hank Steinbrenner about baseball being "singled out," and it got me thinking: pretty much everything about this whole steroid mess is someone else's fault.
Roger Clemens is furious that his trainer would betray him like this, and all of the corroborating testimony that Brian McNamee has conjured up is equally outrageous. Rafael Palmeiro squawked that he tested positive for steroids because he was given tainted supplements. And Barry Bonds...well, he's pretty much just angry with the world at large.
Anyone that hasn't taken a deny, deny, deny approach is admitting one-time use for recovery purposes only, and the net result is this feeling that everyone is trying to sweep a major issue under the carpet. When the music stops with you, you say your piece -- but be sure to keep it short and vague; it's best for your career -- and hope everyone can move on.
It's time for everyone, from the Commissioner to the owners to the general managers to the players, to taken ownership for what has taken place in the last decade and a half. They've cashed their increasingly bloated paychecks, and I think it's more than fair to expect an explanation to the fans.
Everyone at every level would like this steroid problem to go away. But as they say, the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem, and too many people flat-out refuse to do that.
Andy Pettite took a decent first step yesterday, and we can only hope that others will follow his example.

It's interesting to note that everyone who has admitted to using PED's has been, in a way, forgiven. At the very least, these guys are looked upon with much more, for lack of a better word, compassion than those who are in denial, such as Bonds and Clemens.
Pettitte, Giambi, Lo Duca...these guys admitted, in some form, to using PED's, and they are not being criminalized they way that Bonds and Clemens.
