Hey, Bob and I were talking about baseball ands he is kind of pissed off
with the government's inquiry into steroid use - This has come up before in
the past, has it not? He was standing at the coffee shop, looking at
newspaper headlines today and got all pissy about it.

He said when they had the 'reserve clause' in baseball, congress just washed
it's hands of the whole steroid use affair. Why the Big Beef now? Is it
because there is more money in the game or what?

I'm a bit fuzzy on this, and Bob mentioned Curt Flood (whom I'm searching
online for right now) and went off about how he was traded without his
knowledge and left the sport entirely.

I'm going to read up on this some, but am interested in your take on what's
happening now and why.

Deb.

P.S. Happy St. Patrick's Day!
