Tell ya my opinion.. baseball is very unimportant. Certainly not important enough for gavel to gavel coverage on every cable news network in the US. Ridiculous circus event.

It's not really about baseball, it's about drug use. I think it is important if for no other reason than to TRY and show kids that drugs aren't the way to go. There's enough problems in the world already that we don't need an entire generation of kids growing up with roid rage.
I'm not naive enough to believe it hasn't been going on forever, but with the salaries players are making these days, the incentive to take them is even greater then it once was. With the lack of parental influence and GROWING influence of the media, maybe for once the media can do something worthwhile.
