The Mitchell Report Cometh

[Newc]

ESPN - Mitchell to announce results of steroid probe at news conference - MLB

2pm. Thursday December 13, 2007. A day that will live in infamy.

I will be praying and crossing my fingers that none of my Sox will be named in this report.


Hopefully this thread can be a sanctuary for we fans to come and console each other as our heros as named as villians.

I really hope that after all is said and done that this report was not done in vain and rather provides a turning point for the game of baseball.

 

[goldandblue]

Maybe they won't. By the way, I answered your questions in the hot or not thread.

 

[KAPLAN]

Word on the street is Schilling, Ortiz, and Manny will all be named...

 

[Newc]

Haha...would that street happen to be anywhere near 5th avenue?

 

[SoCalDomer]

Word on the street is Schilling, Ortiz, and Manny will all be named...

I hear the report mentions he faked the blood on his sock too. grin:

 

[Newc]

I guess when you are World Champs you have to take all the rips.

 

[Irishknight1023]

Schill would look rather funny if he was on the list after he blew up Bonds the way he did. I think if Jeter was on it then the world would come to an end and baseball would implode.

 

[Newc]

Yea exactly, can you imagine if guys like Jeter or Griffey or even someone like Eckstein was named? That would be a HUGE blow to the game.

 

[Akron Irish]

I heard he was going to advise Eckstein to take them. Poor boy needs em

 

[daytonirish]

Peter Gammons doesn't think to much will come out of this. He said players were told by the union not to cooperate.

 

[onenybrother]

I have a bad feeling my boy Mike Piazza is gonna be on that list.

 

[Akron Irish]

It'll probably list 49 players who are not in the bigs and Sammy Sosa

 

[IrishRamMan10]

Hopefully the whole angels squad is mentioned.

 

[Akron Irish]

Hopefully the whole angels squad is mentioned.

All they need to mention is Vlad and they're done

 

[Newc]

Yea really. I was worried about that. After all the hoopla and noise that has been made by this report, what if it just came out with all these names of former players that used and doesn't mention any of the current players using. I could definitely see baseball doing that as a cop-out. Like a, see we tried to clean up the game now give us our ribbon, type of move.

Hello..... the MITCHELL report... like the guy is gonna turn in his own team... every single team EXCEPT the sox will probably be involved... just another reason to hate that slimy organization... first they trade the Babe for a Broadway play... then years of ineptness... then long standing racism... then collusion followed by an overly bitter fan base... now this.

go Boston!

 

[kjones]

This may be sacrilege to some of you, but if MLB imploded, I probably wouldn't really miss anything except the World Series.

 

[SoCalDomer]

I love baseball, but I have to agree. There are things I can live without in the current MLB.

 

[Sureal]

Sureal admits to performance enhancing drug usage
Combined Services

HARTFORD- Sureal, a random poster on Irish Envy, has admited to using the performance enhancing steroid Clear. Findings in a drug test concludes that he has been using the steroid. In a raid at his office desk the authorities confiscated a container that was marked Cocoa Butter but when tested the steroid was found. Sureal stated "I needed to use the steroid in order to recover quickly due to prolonged staring at useless excel spreadsheets and reviewing revenue numbers for the 20,000,000 time to make sure that every department is accounted for. I have been answering stupid questions that have been asked by my superiors that make more money than I do at least 7 out of the 8 hours that I am at my desk and I needed an extra boost. I apologize to my fans and friends. There is no excuse for steroid use anyway you put it."

 

[daytonirish]

The shame, us new, young , and vulnerable posters here at IE have looked up to you and considered you not just an American Icon but as our hero. You let us down Sureal and this will take time for us to recover from. Thank you for finally being honest with us.

 

[KAPLAN]

Word just came out that Roger Clemens will be in the report for taking Steriods. A 45 year old man that got stronger....what a shock.

Awesome. Maybe now he'll leave us the f--- alone.

 

[KAPLAN]

Awesome. Maybe now he'll leave us the f--- alone.

Will he give us back the 24 million we wasted on him last year?

Say is aint so. Sureal was my Idol. I looked up to him, now this. I will never look at CoCoa Butter the same again. What is this world is going to when a man who's about to go in the 9 to 5 Hall of Fame would risk it all on steriods. Fawk you Sureal. P.S. I burning my Jerseys also.

 

[johnnd05]

Umm ... no. Nor will he give me back the bits of my soul that died every time I swallowed real hard and made myself cheer for him.

Please let's be careful with the names until proof can be shown. I know everyone wants to be the one who got the scoop first. But it unfair to spit names out with something to back it up. I heard Goshen Gipper was Sureal supplier

 

[onenybrother]

If Clemens In the report. His boy Andy can't be far behind. They are famous for working out together. We saw Clemens roid rage when threw the bat at my boy MIke.

 

[notredomer23]

Clemens is definitly on em. Pettite, not so much. Ill be surprised if he is. Giambi will be but i hate him so i dont care. I just pray Arod, Jeter, or Cano are not accused in the report.

 

[Newc]

The New York post is the one reporting that Clemens is on the list, so take that into consideration as they are not the most reputable when it comes to breaking news.

That being said, if someone were to tell me that Clemens was a user I don't think that I wouldn't believe them....look at the guy. Just like Bonds he has gotten visually bigger in his older years.

I doubt that Jeter and A-Rod would be named as I doubt they are steroid users. Those two guys are just purely talented and quite young so I don't see why they would have the need. I also consider Jeter a class act, so if his name were to come out in this report I would be incredibly surprised. He did however give Jessica Alba herpes, so maybe we don't know these guys as well as we think we do.

 

[daytonirish]

I heard that Clemons is putting the blame on three B-Sox fans who post here on IE. Something about pouring it in his drink when he wasn't looking. Now without actuall proof they did this please do not condem them. They are guilty until proven innocent in a N.Y. court house. All I can say is good luck Spinner, Newc, and Sureal. We will all be watching the trial closely.
