eMailbag: Mets should be 2000 Champions

by Matthew Cerrone on December 13th, 2007 at 4:14 pm

…Roger Clemens and Andy Pettitte are mentioned in the Mitchell Report…clemens and pettitte were on the Yankees when they beat the Mets during the 2000 World Series

…as such, several people have e-mailed suggesting that the Yankees should forfeit their trophy…

…clever, but you’ve got to be kidding…i mean, it’s not like the people mentioned in this report are the only people to ever purchase and potentially use steroids…i think it’s fair to speculate that more than a few back-up players from the 2000 Mets were also involved in steroids…and that’s the problem with this list…it only confirms suspicion, it hardly proves guilt, since no actual tests were taken and failed…

…seriously, if you think that only these 50 or so people were involved in this scandal, and not other players who you and i personally cheered for during the same time frame, you’re not being fair
