Even as a former pitcher who only dreamed of pitching a perfect game, I would have to agree with this. ARod may have a shot at this record.

That was a sickening game to watch. I thought Navarro broke it up.

It depends, when was the last one against the Rays? I don't think too many players are still around from the first one.

edit- they allowed one LAST JULY? WTF?

Yeah, I guess a lot of baseball players can say that laugh out loud

That's correct. July 2009 by Mark Buerle.

2 of the 19 perfect games against the Rays in the past year. Yippee! Not a stat I would be happy with. LOL

how is breaking the all time HR record better, when he cheated?

Ah you're right, I was thinking it was just a no hitter. Still have the best record in baseball, no reason for concern.

He still would have broken it anyway. I don't like A-Rod, but Braden has nothing on him.

The good thing is that the RS beat the Yanks last night. I hate rooting for the Red Sox. But, I will when they are playing the Yanks.

I'm a bit biased as a Braves fan since birth (seriously, got pictures of me in a Braves outfit when I was like a week old laugh out loud) but I have to say Barry Bonds breaking the HR record wasn't all that amazing, when you consider that he did it in the Steroid era.

If A-Rod breaks it, it won't mean much. I hope the guy that bought the Barry Bonds HR ball does the same asterisk thing with A-Rod's HR ball. It would be funny.

I don't like either team, but I will always root for the team playing the Yankees.

The "Steroid Era" should be renamed to "They Finally Got Busted For Doing Steroids Era". It's silly to think that it wasn't being used for years and years before it all went public. This is precisely why I don't agree with taking records away. People would be surprised to find out how many players have been using steroids and performance enhancers all these years.

Exactly my point! However, I only dislike the Red Sox. I don't dislike the Yankee players. Just the organization.

So you think Hank Aaron may have been on steroids?

My opinion about Hank Aaron would be no. I don't think he did. But, you never know. Not all guys take steroids to bulk up. Take pitchers for example. You can't bulk up. They take steroids to bounce back faster. So, you can't go by appearance.

everything is legal until you get caught. so it doesnt matter if they did take steroids or anything else. they never got caught. they are innocent until proven guilty. but those who have been caught should have their records taken away.
