Gretzky brothers!
Baseball players get slammed by the media more about steriods because the "numbers" are what makes the sport go round. In football its all about winning and losing. No one really cares about TDs and sacks as much as HRs and Ks in baseball.
Anon wins!
DVS, I get that that is the reason, I just don't accept it, not when there are governmental clowns getting involved over drug use among minor leaguers who will never amount to anything, but Shawne Merriman can get nailed for four games for a positive test and still get MVP votes. The hypocrisy of it is bullshit.
I think you downplay the records in football - they're quite well known if not in number, then at least by who holds them.
