    Sounds like a lot of people are about to get screwed. Results are to come out between October 31st and New Years. They said there will be big names on there. Should be interesting when this comes out.

    Outside of Giambi he has no other firsthand information. The players refused to meet with him, so all of the info will be speculated, unfounded or refuted.

    This commission was a terrible waste of time and a baseball public image creation. I don't think many people will take it seriously (other than the media to give them something to talk about)

    Not sure about the work of this commission, but the Feds have a bunch of names from busting the illegal pharmacies recently and those names are going to come out. I don't think that will be screwing anybody. These guys cheated (maybe the majority of players) and the truth needs to come out. Americans love baseball and the game will be fine after the smoke clears.

    The Commission may have been a good source of information and to serve a purpose in fixing the problem, but they had no power and could not command the players to interview with them....thus the information will be weak at best.

    I know one thing, I bet the players that didn't cheat want those names to come out.

    I like what

    Cal said the other night. It will work it self out in the end. And if you cheat thats what people will remember. As long as MLB let's the crack stay open the crap will find a way in. Most cheats are not caught the first time it is later that it happens. Ask the ones in the big house.
