Peter,

I'm not moralizing particularly, because as I stated earlier, I am not as offended by the whole steroid usage issue as are some others. The users cheated, but cheating has been going on in some form or fashion since the inception of the game. If you want to argue that this type of cheating is worse in type or degree than putting substances on the ball, taking greenies, or performing some other type of activity that is against the rules, so be it. I tend not to, but others may differ. I understand that.

However, if you are going to shoot at the players who took the banned substances, presumably to help them get ahead, keep their job and stay in the lineup, it is the height of hyprocrisy to at the same time give the higher ups a pass. They knew, and they did nothing until their hand was forced. Having profited immensley from the very activity that they now feign indignation about, they're teflon? I don't see it that way and see no justification for treating owners, managers or the commissioner differently from the players.
