Rick Reilly's super dumb column extravaganza!

Honestly, what happened to this guy? Since he got paid by the WWL, his work has gone down the toilet. I really hope there are no performance based clauses in his contract.

How could someone still be this naive to think that he can tell who DIDN'T use steroids prior to 2003? Reilly is just another example of a talking head in the media who thinks Mark McGwire invented steroids in 1997 and only the top performers in baseball have used them.

Nope. Totally impossible for someone to have taken steroids and sucked.

Additionally,

LOL~! @ giving Mike Piazza the NL MVP for 1996. No chance he was on roids.

If written a month ago

He would be writing about how the “clean” Alex Rodriguez should be getting some of these awards.

I saw Reilly on ESPN last night with binoculars on in front of a green screen showing Mt. Rushmore. It was laughable. The humiliations people will go through for money.

On a related note

Kenny Williams recently made some sensible comments about the uproar.

Kenny… what can you say. The guy surprises me every time he makes a transaction or opens his mouth.

Bringing you more-or-less replacement level analysis and commentary since sometime in 2008.

Now, for the man of the night. I have a U-Haul of hardware here for Jose Alberto Pujols Alcántara of the St. Louis Cardinals. You already have two MVPs, Albert, and you’re about to get three more, since Barry Bonds ripped you off worse than Bernie Madoff to win the award from 2002 to 2004. You hit .335 and averaged 41 bombs those years and yet you finished second behind the clearly creaming Bonds in ‘02 and ’03 and third behind Bonds and Adrian Beltre in ’04. We’re throwing out Beltre since, while he denies ever using PEDs, he fell off the face of the planet once baseball put in stricter steroid suspensions in 2005. If he wasn’t cheating, I’m the Queen Mother.

So he can say beyond a shadow of a doubt that without a single positive test, Adrian Beltre did steroids. But Mike Piazza? NO WAY~!

What a damned idiot.
