Do the Yankees have a stain over those championships in the last 90s/early 00s where their entire roster was juicing?

I dunno


but the Astros sure as frick do.

I love that clip of the little man nervously giggling about why they didn't tear his shirt off. He should have tattooed "I am guilty" on his forehead, would have been more subtle.

Keep repeating it. Maybe one day it’ll be true.

How does it feel to be stupid enough to fall for an Incarcerated Bob hoax?

its hilarious. Yankees got outed as cheating from 2015-2017 as well. but i guess since their cheating didn't result in winning they shouldnt have to forfeit any wins.

the sliding scale of acceptable and unacceptable cheating is whether or not you beat the Yankees apparently

Motherfricker that cuts both ways, then. You wouldn’t be saying they didn’t win it if you weren’t trying to convince someone of it.
But nothing is at stake for me. Nobody is interested in what Mets fans think about all this.

We’re all interested in the Astromelt, though. Glorious.

MLB has never taken a trophy away from a team as far as I know, why would they with the Astros?
Because they cheated. Literally everyone has made this perfectly clear.

Also does that mean you are running the fake profile? The one where the troll account says he hooks up with countless starlets and hangs around Kate Beckinsale

Why would you post that and not give examples? Don’t you realize that the exact next question anyone you’re talking to would ask is “which ones?”

Ugh I think we should break up.

Well being the MLB guru as yourself, I assumed you would know...

Red Sox and Astros are most recent
Reds with Rose as a player, you have no idea if he played bad for a bet during a WS

You have players taking greenies/gambling/spiking balls/etc that has never been suspended but never came out until later and MLB taking away or putting a * by their titles. It isn't going to happen, teams that have won have had players suspended for corked bats, fixing balls, PEDs, etc...

Link to proof of entire juicing roster please. I mean, we have proof of the entire Astros roster cheating, so I’d love to see the proof you have on the Yankees.

So you want to ignore teams that won with players implicated in PED's? Rose who gambled on his team as a player? Team's who won with players on coke and greenies, which were illegal?

It only matters if they cheated the way you wanted? Because history shows players have cheated and team's have benefitted from that cheating

Players juicing is very bad and taints a lot of individual records, but a team possessing a World Series trophy as a result of cheating this blatant is unprecedented.

None of those are this. They’re all bad for their own reasons, but the 2017 Astros are the only example of what they are.
