Did anyone else who was watching the Cubs-Cardinals game happen to see someone wearing a Chicos Bail Bonds sweatshirt running down a foul ball on the third base side of the park?
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

I saw that. Then I saw Kyle Schwarber, wearing a butchers apron and wielding a meat cleaver, slam a baseball to the moon.

Says a Brewers fan?

Yup. Seen the effects first hand. As have Cubs fans.

Well, those 2 fan bases...and every fan base in the MLB.

Well aside from Braun actually being dirty.

I'm skeptical about a couple young Cubs, but Schwarber is not even on the radar.

I think(?) you're a Cubs fan so curious as to who?

Saw that...and then thought...this is exactly the kind of event the 'bondsman would have tickets for.

Maybe the pitcher with the big guns who, after posting an ERA above 5.00 in his first four+ major league seasons, suddenly got really good when he turned 28 and even better at 29.

In one of the youth baseball leagues I umpire, one of the teams actually has CHICOS BAIL BONDS on its jerseys as the sponsor. So somebody has a good sense of humor.

If you knew anything whatsoever about Arrieta that wouldn't even be a consideration.  But you clearly don't so you said something dumb.

I saw it....I own the same jersey.  Tanner Boyle edition.  Our softball team wore those for years.

Was he running away from the flying projectile?  He should have sat behind the net.

You're pretty naive if you think only athletes who have been caught have used PEDs.

I've come to accept that every major professional sport team in the USA has players who have used PEDs on them.

No. I was just responding to a lazy, uninformed comment. There are a number of reasons Arrieta has become this type of pitcher. I'd be stunned if PEDs is one of them.

Nowhere did I state that I think only athletes that have been caught are the only ones that have used PEDs. I also have no reason to suspect anyone on the Cubs.

So far you've called a poster dumb, lazy, and uninformed.

You're the tops at Internet arguing, sir.

I don't know, man. I don't think that MLB's PED testing is all that great.

Schwarber should be at the bottom of the list. The guy looks and is built the same as he was in high school (unless, you think he was using then). This isn't a crazily unnatural, Clay Matthews type of situation.

I'll give you a reason to suspect anyone on the Cubs:

Because they play for the Cubs.

Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

Here is a good article on Arrieta and why he has become better.  He hasn't become stronger, which PEDs would do, but he has become insanely more accurate with his pitches.
