So last night Rotoinfo.com released a rumored steroid list and theropolitans ran with it. They give a hat tip to this blog but lets face it no one is reading Rotoinfo or J Schil’s blog. TheRopolitans is at least getting 20k visitors a month. The interesting thing about this is that normally when something like this comes out every blog is writing about. But nowhere else do I see any major blog writing about this. Personally I believe this is due to the whole MidwestSportsFans fiasco and I don’t think anyone wants to touch it so they don’t get any hate mail. Blogs write about stuff like this all the time and now I wonder if things are going to change because of what happen with the Midwest Sports Fans situation.
The one thing I can’t stand is how Rotoinfo posted this list. This is all they posted before the list “Rumored 2003 Steroid list leaks out? at on June 29, 2009 Rumored steroid list (UNCONFIRMED)”
That’s it. I mean at least give a back story on it. Like a friend of a friend knows someone who used to work for the MLB or something. Did Rotoinfo make this up to get new readers? Maybe? Should TheRopolitans have published the list? Who knows, but they can do whatever they want to as they are beholden to no one. Does this deserver an Outside the Lines Story? No. All it is fans talking about people taking steroids. If some dumb fans want to take this as fact, then that is their problem. For those of you that haven’t seen the list, here you go:

So apparently every good player in the league was on steroids at the time?

@alex I don’t really believe this list but I do believe there were a ton of people on steroids at the time.

If this is true, this list is crazy. Those are some good players on there. It also explains a lot of things.

That can’t be the list because the original list was said to have 104 names on it. The number has been called 103 because it already came out that Barry Bonds was on the list. It seems to me that who made this listed just included guys who have tested positive after the fact and people they just thought were using.

If you’re suprised about this list then I am scared for you if they ever find out the full list of everyone. I know that they won’t be able to get such a list, but i guarantee there are 100 more superstars who could have easily been on here as well. “Everyone was doing it.”
