It has nothing to do with hand eye coordination. Where the bat is in the swing affects the angle the ball comes off the bat.

I was refuting your statement of steroids helping you get the bat around faster. You can swing a bat as fast as you want but doesn't mean you will hit the ball. Also I don't think steroids helps swings a bat faster, they don't help your ligaments or fast twitch muscles get any "stronger"

Plus most of it is used for recovery anyways, not to build muscle.

Agreed. I assume they are all on something. I don't give a ****.

Look at your average NFL safety. You don't get that big, that cut, and maintain 4.4 40 speed without being on something.

But Jake Arrieta is a cheating, 'roided up ******* because he plays for the Cubs. So **** him.

Same here. I just laugh when people cry cheater when someone gets popped considering hardly anyone is clean. At this point, I think only Bartolo Colon MAY be clean. And that's a stretch. I'm a Phillies fan. In Rollins' MVP season (07 or 08...I forget), he hit 30 home runs. ****** is 5'6" in heels and maybe 165. That kind of power doesn't occur in nature.

I don't understand the problem with it though. Being on steroid's won't make you hit the baseball any better, just hit it harder.

I have 0 issue with it. If the batter is juiced to the gills as is the pitcher, it's a level playing field. Bonds is the home run king and belongs in the Hall of Fame. It's a travesty that he'll never get the recognition he deserves from the old guard of the sport. I have more issue with the over-regulation of it than anything else. When properly taken and monitored by a doctor, there is little to no inherent risk. When abuse occurs is when the issues start.

There is only one guarantee with Bartolo Colon. He is fat and entertaining to watch when he is hitting.

Power is energy over a period of time. Energy is force over a distance. Stronger muscles will generate more force and cover a given period of time more quickly, creating more power.

Same principles can be applied to pitching though can they not?

If Mark Madden went out like Mama Cass, I wouldn't mind.

Y'all just hating because he's got the big house on the big side of town.

I had to look up who Mark Madden is. "beginning work as a TV color commentator and magazine writer for World Championship Wrestling"

Ohhhhh, I guess that is why I don't know him............

Completely disagree. If you wanna do the crime, you accept all risks that if you get caught, you do the time. Bonds, A-Rod, and the like should be nailed to the cross. Whether almost every player is dabbling in the Roids or it's only a select few, we don't actually know, but I think it's partly responsible for MLB ratings decline over the last couple decades.

Why get emotionally invested in the best players on your favorite team if you have a suspicion their legacy could be torn down someday?

He's a radio host in Pittsburgh on WXDX. I wouldn't have known who he was from wrestling either.

Come on u think that Hank Aaron didn't use speed like everyone did in that era to get up for games. What about the steelers of the 70s there balls r smaller then raisins with how much the juiced. And let's not forget there was no rule about it and no testing don't blame the players blame the league. Bonds is the greatest hitter period.

I was more or less being a *******. I don't listen to sports radio.

 

[preluderl]

It's not sports radio either doe, it's The X.

But yeah, it is sports radio. Good lord Clearchannel has ******* ruined The X. It used to be awesome. Now it's whatever ******** is trending with the alternative hipsters and Mark Madden bloviating about being a super genius, all the while mostly just being an enormous ****.

 

[wyckydsceptre]

Listen, you ******** can talk **** about the Cubs all day, but I can't stand idly by and let you drag Big Sexy's name through the mud.

We're not strong enough to drag him anywhere.

Also, Mark Grace is also untouchable for coining the term "slump buster"

 

[wyckydsceptre]

You son of a bitch. I've seen enough of us to know that's a lie

 

[PSUMike]

The Phillies are my A-team but I do root for the Cubs as my B-team. I guess I have a soft spot for a century's worth of futility.

FTFY. Pete Rose or Ted Williams have the claim to greatest hitter.

Josh Bell politely disagrees

It seems to me like Kevin Nash has no idea how to spell his own name

FTFY. It'll always be there.

As for your knowledge of the steelers' nads, I'm just gonna leave that one alone.
