Players Named In Mitchell Report - Most Surprising? Not Lenny Dykstra
by CriticalFanatic
12/13/07

Here's the full Mitchell Investigation Report. It's 409 pages so I clearly haven't read through it all, but below is the list in order of which the names are presented starting on page 149.

This is by no means the definitive list, Sammy Sosa or Mark McGwire isn't on it after all, but a great start for baseball's effort to clean up the game. Also a great day for fans, answering just a few of the many questions we have about what we've witnessed over the last 20 years.

The name I'm most amused by is the one at the top. Lenny Dykstra. What a crazy SOB, which all makes sense. Most surprising? Chuck Knoblauch. It's clear that steroids affect your mental functioning, but we must consider that he didn't take enough juice. It's not all that far a throw from 2nd to 1st ... for those 4 year-old and up. Paul Lo Duca amuses me as well, especially the copy of his note. We'll keep reading but for now which name on the list most surprises?

Lenny Dykstra
David Segui
Larry Bigbie
Brian Roberts
Jack Cust
Tim Laker
Josias Manzanillo
Todd Hundley

Now how about someone do this for football. I bet we could get just as many if not more NFL players on a list.

Remember kids, steroids are bad, and judging by some of the guys on this list, they don't always help much either.

Somehow, the NFL is immune to all of the steroid controversies.  It's a insane double standard.

I'm going to start calling you MrBrokenRecord.

Maybe the NFL should take of itself ... until they do, we have baseball players to condemn.

I would agree it's in the 30-40% range.
