So, ESPN "Outside the lines" talked today about Roids and the effects on Little League.
They had Dante Bichette and his kid, Dante talked how he knew who was on, as an athlete you could tell. He talked how from day one he would tell his son "that guy hit that home run because he's on steroids, I don't want you to ever do those" and his kid used to say "Daddy, is that man on Asteroids".
They show'd another kid, when the little leaguers did the "who their favorite player is" said "Ralphie" and did the whole finger point/quote from when Ralphie was in front of congress, the kids also said that wasn't his fav player.
Talked to another kid who last year would say Sosa but now Derek Lee, because between the corked bat and the roids aligations he doesn't trust his "hero".
Plus a kid who Giambi was his fav player.
Just found it interesting seeing how kids see it.
The question is, how will they feel in 5-10yrs when they have a college scout or a pro scout looking at them.
