Just a warning: I feel pretty passionately about this issue, so this is gonna get pretty angry.
Well, angrier than usual.
You've been warned. ONWARD!
Readership, I would consider myself a fan of baseball. The sport, the tradition, and my team, the New York Yankees (since the womb, so don't go starting with that frontrunner bullshit or I'll cut you).
Recently, as most baseball fans know, there have been rumors and leaks and discussions regarding a list of MLB players who tested positive for steroids in 2003.
This troubles me - no, this pisses me off - for a few reasons. One, the results were to remain confidential. Confidential is defined, loosely, as "DON'T FUCKING TELL ANYBODY." Loose definition, but it'll suffice for this argument. So some dumb fuck leaked it, DIRECTLY disobeying a direct order from a superior. Somebody sat the guy who leaked it down, at some point in 2003, and said "Listen buddy, here are the results of the steroid test. KEEP IT TO YOUR FUCKING SELF. Thanks!" Such a SIMPLE command - "don't tell anybody" - and yet the dipshit FAILED.
Another reason that this pisses me off is the date - 2003. What was going on in 2003? My Yankees got beaten in 6 games by the Marlins in the World Series (painful). A-Rod was AL MVP and Barry Bonds was NL MVP. That's dicey enough right there. But still - it was in 2003! A) Why are we hearing about this shit NOW, in 2009 and B) Why the fuck does it matter? What does it change? Everything that happened in the 2003 season HAPPENED and there's nothing we can do to change it. What, are we gonna go back into the record books and take away A-Rod's AL-leading 47 homers? What about Barry Bonds' NL MVP Award? Hell no, we're not.
I'm pissed that some stupid fuck leaked something that was supposed to remain CONFIDENTIAL, but I'm more pissed that A) He leaked it SIX YEARS LATER and B) He leaked it in fucking drips and drops. If you're gonna be a piece of shit and leak something that's supposed to remain confidential A) Do it when it's FUCKING RELEVANT and B) DROP IT ALL AT ONCE! The way this shit has been going, just when we're like "oh okay, people are playing by the rules now and have been for a while," this fucking twat drops another big name into the steroid stigma and we're left wondering "Who the fuck else?"
And that shit pisses me off. Who the fuck is the dumb shit douchebag that leaked this shit in the first place? We need to find him, piss on his door, egg his house, and kick the shit out of him.
All day. All night.
And twice on Sunday.
Because honestly, he deserves that.
At the least.
For fuck's sake!
Stay classy
