Just as interesting as the players who were named in the report are the players who were not named, notably those who were tried and convicted in the court of uninformed opinion by all those armchair inquisitors and holier-than-thou sportswriters, especially Mark McGuire and Sammy Sosa. I am also glad that, finally, there will be other players who get to share the spotlight with everybody's favorite whipping boy, Barry Bonds, who, in my mind, will ultimately be deserving of apologies by a lot of people. By the way, how come nobody ever mentions the fact that six of Babe Ruth's famous 60 homers in 1927 were actually ground rule doubles by today's rules?. Does he deserve an asterisk too?
