You make a good point there.

The best part about Mark and steroids is all the years Cards fans refused to admit he was juicing and how they hated Bonds hitting 73 calling him a steroid freak the whole way.

So you'd like a format with the best team in the league getting a 1st round by while the other 2 division winners go at it? Or did you mean adding an extra division to each league? (Honestly asking)

Kinda like every fan denying someone on their team took steroids?

Add two teams, eight, four team divisions.

And welcome to the board.

Glad to have any baseball fans here, even Cardinal fans, lol. (okay, maybe not Cub fans)

They way you're extremely oversensitive about you team on a rivals board I highly doubt that.

Many? McGuire, absolutely. He came out and admitted it so less angry with it.

Only one caught

No sensitivity here. You bash the Cardinals, I defend them just like you would defend the Reds if I spouted off meaningless nonsense.

I have to admit, however much I dislike the Cards, most of their fans were furious when Mac came out as a steroid user. They felt betrayed.

Melky sure didn't!

Actually, Ankiel used HGH while he was recovering from surgery. So everyone calls him a cheat too. He's less of a cheat since he didn't amount to much.

Which I think is stupid. Everyone knew players were on PED's in the late 80's and 90's. No one cared, there wasn't an outcry from anyone, but when things started falling, that's when the distancing happened. It's still happening, PED's are all over the NFL (America's most popular sport) and no one cares at all. I'm willing to bet if Congress got involved like they did with Baseball, people would start being upset all of a sudden.

4 divisions of 4 teams is the best with no Interleague play which is the most unfair thing in baseball.

Have 10 3 game Series with each of the 3 in your Division so that's 90 games then you play a 3 game series home and away with the other 12 teams for the remaining 72 games of a 162 game season.

Dumping Interleague makes the All-Star game and World Series special again, In the playoffs I would make all series 7 games with no off days meaning teams will be forced to use their whole rotation and it doesn't punish teams with SP depth rather than 2 Aces. Also seeing teams 30 times a year makes the rivalries more intense and most of all its actually fair.

Once he came out but not in the moment, they would get hot if you dare question him not being clean.
