Had they of actually punished the players, made them accountable, punished the team with something more than a slap on the wrist, people would of forgotten about it by now.

if you aint cheating you aint trying, cheating has been going on in sports since the inception of sports just sometimes people get caught. had they admitted to it, no worries water under the bridge.
Horrible mindset. This guy doesn't wear a mask for sure.
“In the minds of the public, there seems to be an impression that sign stealing is illegal—at any rate, unsportsmanlike. It is not so regarded by ball players. If a player is smart enough to solve the opposing system of signals he is given due credit…. There is another form of sign stealing which is reprehensible and should be so regarded. That is where mechanical devices worked from outside sources, such as the use of field glasses, mirrors and so on, are used… Signal-tipping on the fields is not against the rules, while the use of outside devices is against all the laws of baseball and the playing rules. It is obviously unfair.”

no, had the players apologized all would have been good, the punishment was appropriate the reaction by the punished was not.

I was at "Mother's Bar" in Ocean Beach San Diego the night the Cubbies won in '16, paid a girl $100 to take my shift so I could watch the game- next to watching Sammy hit homers #60, 61 and 62 in person September 12-13 1998 against Milwaukee it was the greatest baseball experience of my life.
That is cool. But how does this matter?

Difference with the Astros it was a whole team. in the past at least it has been players majority of the time, Even the Black sox scandal was not the whole team just some players. They got severely punished. the issue here is players got away with the cheating and the team still keeps the title. The way Manfred handled this is the real problem. The way the Astros players are acting this year is disrespectful.
they just got caught, this didn't end all cheating- deep down a lot of people are thinking "dang why didn't we think of that"- I loathe the Astros, they've always been overly arrogant s.o.b.'s in my opinion, I'm just pointing out truth now we know why they were "overly arrogant"
Yeah they did get caught and what was done, nothing nothing at all to the players. That is the real problem, No one is saying others are not cheating, do not use that as an excuse that others did not get caught so it was ok for the Astros players to get away with it. Manfred is a tool. If this is how Manfred wants to be then Pete Rose should be re instated and Joe Jackson should be in the hall of fame if cheating does not matter cause everyone does it mentality.
when I was a little leaguer back in '83 I listed Pete Rose as my favorite baseball player, I hear ya- too much hypocrisy period. Barry Bonds was hands down the greatest player to play the game, he could recognize a pitch before it left the pitchers hand- steroids didn't help him do that, steroids didn't give bonds "super eyes", he truly is a Giant. Roger Clemens just did what everyone else was doing at the time and kept doing what he did shutting them down. Sometimes in your mind you're like " well [censored] if they're doing it and not getting busted and its making those scrubs better I may as well do it too, I aint a snitch and I know if its making your scrub zzz better I'm dominating". Bonds and Clemens are first ballot, Bonds was a [censored] to the media, tell me how steroids helped him finish with an on base percentage over .500 for 4 straight years- between the ages of 36-39 when most couldn't remember their prime, steroids didn't do that the greatest eye in baseball did that.
You serious Clark?

Ironically he uses “crucified” and the Astros were stealing signs.... two thieves were crucified alongside Christ...
Thankfully lesser punishments are given to thievery in our culture as compared to the Roman way.

You get caught you get crucified.
The 1951 Giants also cheated with a sign stealing scheme at Polo Grounds.
And?
So if they are not caught until much later they didn’t do anything wrong? My point aligns with the OP, most sports fans cheer for a team that has cheated, no need to crucify past the punishment they received.
Yeah let them off the hook and move on. Let’s all play nice. I’m sure they meant well. They were just trying to win, right? Lol

I know you're a troll so this is the only thing I'll say about this but I'm guessing you accidentally left out the part where steroids help you bulk up. While he certainly had a great eye (and I agree that steroids had very little to do with that) when you have arms the size of most grown men's thighs then your bat speed and power just might get a little boost. I remember he got walked with the bases loaded a time or two. Pitchers/managers walked him so much on purpose because of the sheer power that man had. Steroids most definitely provide an advantage to those that take them.
In 2004 he had an other worldly .609 OBP. He was walked 232 times, 120 of those intentionally and I bet quite a few of the other 112 were intentionally unintentional.

so he was the strongest dude that ever lived, that's your argument basically, being the strongest dude ever with the greatest eye means you should be in the hall. Bonds was the best player before steroids(https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/b/bondsba01.shtml) he became the best steroid user then- dude 90% of all players were using in that era, bonds became the best because he already was the best- Barry Bonds is the greatest baseball player of any generation regardless of steroids, you've never played the game if you don't get that. Barry Bonds is baseballs g.o.a.t, hank 2nd, babe 3rd hands down- ask anyone who faced Bonds. mark McGwire was a known user and no one feared him like they feared bonds, look at the numbers dude and McGwire was the closest thing to bonds as a power threat in that era next to Sammy.

Couldn’t agree more. And I’ve got buddies I played pro ball with on that team. The way MLB and Manfred have protected them is an absolute JOKE. I hope every team goes after them

if you aint cheating you aint trying, cheating has been going on in sports since the inception of sports just sometimes people get caught. had they admitted to it, no worries water under the bridge.
It really must suck to be an Astros fan knowing that you barely won one title by cheating when the Giants won 3 in 5 years w/o cheating lmao.
right......myself, I'm cubs/d-backs all the way brother.
well then idk why the hell you're defending them lmao.

Them cheating is only half of the problem. My biggest issue was how arrogant they were when denying the cheating. How they made it seem like other teams were crazy for calling them out. Especially Correa, I think that smug SOB deserves everything that’s coming to him. Look at Altuve batting under .200. Hard to hit when ya don’t know what’s coming huh
