YASNY Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 (edited) Ryne Sandburg, who I always considered a class act and I don't care if he was a Cub, really ripped into selfish players that tip their caps after a homer with the team down by five runs and are always looking for the red light on the dugout cam. He didn't mention Sosa by name, but we all know .... Phil Rogers' column EDIT: The thread title is taken from the link at the ChicagoSprts site.

That was the ultimate forum. Young players should take heed. The most laughable, yet plausible outcome would be for abusers like soso never to get into the Hall.

SouthsideNorthsideFan Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Your opinion is so far off-base, it's borderline hater material. Would you have preferred a gushing, thankful, limp-wristed-wrigley-bleacher-like speech like most do? Tell me, what forum, if any, would be good for such a speech?

Perhaps a youth baseball camp.. or a YMCA. Somewhere where he might make a difference and not in from of a bunch of adults that are already aware of the dangers of roids.
