Don’t Make Carlton Fisk Angry

The Chicago Tribune caught up with Carlton Fisk this week amid the new steroid drama circling Mark McGwire. Our old fireplug catcher responded as we would have expected, lambasting McGwire and the other confessers who continue to try and downplay the effects steroids had on them. Like most people, I think I'm slowly getting more sick of steroids as each new poster-boy for "not talking about the past" comes forward. Between the fake tears, the finger pointing, and uncanny ability to forget the English language, the fans of baseball have been treated to a fiasco much like dirty politics. Baseball "saviors" come up dirty, and players continue to abuse the system without any remorse or regret.
