The Mitchell Report

Cironnu · 12-14-2007, 10:37 AM

Well, it's finally out, and thankfully, there aren't many Royals on it. We already knew about Jose Guillen, but the guys on the Mitchell list are guys who basically played one season here on their way from one team to retirement. Knoblauch, Rondell White, Hal Morris...guys who most Royals fans probably don't know ever played in KC.

No Sweeney. I know that's going to surprise some people. With his sudden performance decline, a lot people thought he was a prime candidate. Not being on the list doesn't prove that he, or anyone else, didn't use PED's, but it's better than having him named.

Lotta' prominent Yankees on there though. Sheffield, Giambi, Pettite, Clemens...I wonder if the whole "Yankee Dynasty" will be tarnished by this? It sounds to me like the "Yankee Mystique" was really "Steroids In Action".

Unicorn, this board's deader than the Royals chances of having a winning season. What happened to Lisa, King George, JC, all the old gang? It's so sad.

It is interesting, however, that the spankmees haven't won a World Series since serious 'roid testing began. Just a coincidence, I'm sure.

Lisa has a husband and a kid, JC's busy with his job, and most people are on the "other" board. It's dead as Hell, alright, but at least it's not filled with drama.

This may not be the prime time of the year to revive the old board, here, but I hope that some of the folks from before chat it up over here. The "other' board is a little crazy and hard to join the conversations. The contributions I make over there seem to get ignored in favor of all of the other crap.
