Not to make this an anti Yankee thing but growing up all I heard was they were the team with class all those championship years.  When in reality they had many steroid guys and others with awful behavior like this.  Jim Leyritz for example who killed someone driving drunk

Give him his day in court. If he's guilty, throw the book at him. He should never see the light of day again.

 

I'm wondering if this is a consensual relationship a la Roger Clemens.  Another Texan.

So you're suggesting that Wetteland and Clemens had a little fling back in the day?:lol:

To be fair Rodger STILL denies there was ever a sexual relationship... he says they were  just friends and that he became friends with her parents as well...

 

He lawyer denied it too ?

And she was never entirely clear on when the sexual relationship started - "years" after they met, and she was 15 when they met, according to her.

He also said he didn't use steroids.

 

He also said he didn't mean to hit Piazza in the head.

 

The guy is a pure scumbag.

It was disgusting.  I'd feel the same even if it wasn't against the Mets.

it's okay even if your Mets-ish-ness took high dudgeon

 

it was like a lightning strike, rare in baseball....

 

it was ten times more flabbergasting as when Goose Gossage drilled Ron Cey right in the face in the 81 World Series

 

The Seahawks throwing the INT in the SB was another WTF moment where i couldn't comprehend what i just saw live, for a few minutes....
