Baseball unveils three-strike drug policy

" You underestimate the power
of the dark side of the force"

Major League Baseball took a step toward winning over the U.S. Congress yesterday, when it announced tougher penalties for steroid use and, for the first time, established penalties for the use of amphetamines. Does anybody even watch baseball anymore? I could care less if a bunch of guys making a couple million dollars a year want to use some drugs that makes their testicles shrink. What happened to the love in the game? The glory? What happened to the era when baseball helped define the country? Probably the same thing that happened to common sense, independent thought and brotherhood. Oh, and freedom of expression and speech are on their way out the ball park as well.
