    Well we have a new charter member of this hallowed institution Floyd "Roid" Landis. We can enshrine him in the stolen celebration wing with the likes of Danny Almonte and Ben Johnson. How much does it suck to find out 2 weeks later that you've won something like the Tour De France. No champaign, no madamoiselles no parties, just a phone call.
    And those Little Leaguers who lost in the semis to that cheating NYC team will always wonder if they were better than the team that "won" the Series by losing to NYC in the finals.

    Landis can now join other heroes of the Altered Hall of Fame like former Soviet shot-putter Tamara Press...

    Not me Doc. I haven't been up to the Buick in 10 yrs. I'm usually up north playing in a golf outing that I've been going to for 30 yrs. The guy I usually bunk with couldn't make it this year so i'm missing my 3rd one in 32 yrs. I'm going to try to play today for the first time in 3 weeks. Damn old back.

    McGuire will not be in the Stolen Celebration wing. He'll be in the trashed records wing. These are current athletes who remove from the record books great, honest athletes. Aaron and Maris' records will be thrown in the trash can because cheats stole them. And all the while Owners and the union stood by and did nothing to protect the integrity of the game.
