Now that all the hype of Steroids is over, or so we think. Where are all those players of yesteryears, the ones we hoot and haulered about when they came out of the dug out, the McGuires, Bonds, Canseco, Bonds and Sosa. After setting and breaking records, signing outstanishing contracts with not just Major Legue Baseball, but with Sports Cards companies, clothing and apperals.
Now we have to put all that behind us, if we have not done so already and move on. We have to look at the new and upcoming players with outstanding stats. The Albert Pujols, Prince Fielder, Jamey Wright and the new faces of Nelson Cruz and others like him. I admit, I gave up on Baseball when it all started, we let the Grand Jury waste a tax payers money to settle a dispute as to who did or did not do some type of steroid. Now I have started to watch Baseball again, we still have Ichiro, Edgar Renteria and other players to watch. Baseball can and has picked itself back up from the ugly that has been done to it. We can now go back into the stores and buy boxes, if not packs of baseball cards and look forward to getting a good/great card.This is a whole new era to collect. With new players that will bring stability to the Sports Cards companies. New contracts to fulfill more apperal to buy and more games to watch, whether on TV or at a Ball Park.
