Cinderella story Rick Ankiel & 2002 World Series MVP Troy Glaus are the latest MLB players to be connected with performance enhancing drugs.

Both players have allegedly received PEDs (HGH for Ankiel, Steroids for Glaus) from an Orlando based pharmacy.

Jayson Stark of ESPN wrote a good article about the double standard we are seeing applied to these popular players as compared to the treatment that Barry Bonds has received.

And as you can imagine, that's the angle I'm interested in as well. It's obvious that Glaus & Ankiel are just one of many many many MLB players who have used HGH and/or steroids. Why do you think most players haven't said anything bad about Barry Bonds? They know how hypocritical it would be. MOST PLAYERS IN MLB HAVE USED PED. Get that through your heads people! And for God's sake: GET OFF BARRY BONDS' BACK. You seriously look foolish witch hunting this one man because of why again? Because he broke records? Seriously? You think that makes it make more sense to witch hunt him than every other MLB player who probably used steroids or HGH? I really don't get the logic. It's OK to single out one player because he's better than everyone else? Yeah. Really, that makes a lot of sense.

Also consider these two things:

#1 As I mentioned before the pitcher that Barry Bonds hit #755 off of tested positive for steroids. He wasn't accused of taking steroids, he actually TESTED POSITIVE. Think about that. How many other juiced pitchers has Barry hit home runs off of?

#2 Troy Glaus was the 2002 World Series MVP. You remember who lost that World Series? The San Francisco Giants & Barry Bonds. Are you going to tell me that winning the World Series isn't "making history," are you really? And don't tell me that because the shipments that they've caught happened in 2003 and 2004 that means Glaus wasn't on steroids in 2002. PLEASE. This is just what they've been CAUGHT with.

Give me a break.

It is officially time to get off of Barry Bonds' back and accept the fact that your favorite players are just as "guilty" as he is.
