Its the biggest stadium in the National football league thats what makes it unique

Despite the fact that MLB continues to enjoy "success", the Steroids Era and how players, management, and fans responded to it IS a great stain on the Old National Pastime.

i want jets go back to ny and shea stadium was real home to ny jets

All stat for these "players" should have a steroid symbol next to their names. What a travesty would it be to have the new generation of baseball players growing up thinking Bonds passed Aaron on home runs.

RIP.... Charlie O. 🫏

I hate the Yankees but that video was fantastic. Let’s Go Phillies !

Imagine showing the Jets logo before the Giants. 😬

They ain't gonna demolish A building in NYC for a sports stadium. And why can't they just go NORTH of New York City and the Jets just share the stadium

Trump 2024 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Thank you for your service, my family served in Vietnam also and I recently visited the wall to pay respect

Sad that their friendship was destroyed over some background female nonsense..

Oh wow! I was under the impression that the A's dominated the 70s but I guess they just dominated the early seventies.. I did not expect them to hate the owner so badly although they had very good reason to hate him since he was being so cheap. That's really sad that the a seem to have like this history of cheap owners. Of course I'd say things were different during the 1980s especially when they won the world series in 1989 because believe it or not the Oakland A's in 1989 had the highest payroll in the mlb. Over the last 20 years or so they've basically been in the bottom three payrolls

Because if they moved to New Jersey they wouldn’t be able to gain fan base from both New Jersey and New York But if they keep calling themselves New York teams while playing in New Jersey they can make way more money and get way more fans

Please fix the audio…

Greg ANDERSON =LOYALTY

Yeah, Y'all weren't overcoming the big red machine. Your jokes are stale

I mean the nerds are right don't say it was the first if it wasn't the first 🤷

As a Yankees fan, I loved George Steinbrenner. Sometimes he pressed the wrong buttons. But I loved how he had no tolerance for losing. Never scared of trying to improve his team. It's no coincidence they haven't been as good since he passed away.

Steroid or not, Bonds was still the greatest player I’ve ever watched

One of the first guys to probably use steroids was Reggie Jackson. He trained at Golds Gym Venice, with bodybuilders who used steroids. Especially what he did during the WS.

4:37 those are some god awful advertisements.

A $300 bonus to grow a mustache-oh boy! Even in 1972 that was only about $2,000. That's an insult to those mega-talented players.

Nixon didn't lose cause he wasn't hot. He lost cause the Chicago mob fixed the Illinois votes in Kennedy's favor

This is why ya GOTTA give respect to the pitchers of this era who were good and to players like... say Ken Griffey Jr, who never did PED's. Those players were against all odds with the situation and look what some of them did. Those are the real stars of this ERA imho. When Davis Ortiz got in and some of the other "users" of PEDs, at that point... just let them all in. Call it a day. These guys required talent to do what they did, did the PEDs help hit the ball farther ? Who the hell knows. But its not like PED's made these guys go from shitty players to magic. All of these players had raw talent to start with. (Or most of them lets put it that way.). But we cannot pretend that this type of stuff wasnt happening during era's of other players who got in the Hall. You really think no one was using drugs in the 50s-70's? C'mon 60s was LSD, Weed, Speed galore, a pitcher we all know wrote a book about his perfect game on LSD in the 70s. The 70s had disco disco, ya dont think some of the players were doing Coke back in the 70s? C'mon. Qualudes anyone? What we define as "performance enhancing"... Its almost like Robin Williams stand up when he talks about how a Olympic athlete in track was stripped of their gold medal for testing positive for Weed. Robin said "Maybe if theres a 6ft Hershey bar at the end of the run, then and only then is WEED a performance enhancing drug". There is a double standard at work here.

Had a high school friend (17 years old) who in 1983 used steroids to make the football team in CANADA. High school football is Canada is meaningless.

I invented the BOOM meter, and I loved this club so much in '14 &'15.

Beautiful ending, since Ohtani is kind of today’s “Summer of ‘98”. He’s gotten a lot more people interested in baseball in the last couple years

The liberals did the same thing to Nixon as they have been doing to Trump. He was very smart with all over seas matters.

Jake was best Harvey not sane after surgery Noah fastball no movement

Bring back the steroid era. It was clearly the best. Social mores have changed and literally no one thinks they’re a big deal now

This is not the whole story, and is a little misleading. There was never a clear rule against using steroids, just an innocuous memo, and no testing program. Tom House, the highly respected MLB and college pitching coach, said that players were using steroids from at least the 60s. They didn't call them steroids then, but they were really powerful things that were designed for use by horses. In the 70s, MANY players, including Hank Aaron, who admitted it, took illegal "Greenies" (amphetamines). Canseco said that 80% of players took steroids. A certain Mets pitcher said it was 90%. So batters using steroids weren't cheating, they were keeping up with the pitchers who were all using them. Tommy John was told by the Yankees, in the late 80s, after having a pretty good year in his mid-40s, that he would have to gain 30 pounds of muscle OVER THE WINTER if he wanted to stay with the team. The owners knew it, and demanded it. But they were using steroids in EVERY sport, especially the Olympics....from the 70s, at least. If there is no testing program, it's not cheating! The truth is, they are STILL using steroids...in every sport. There is a list of banned drugs, but pharmacists are able to create new drugs faster than the banning programs can ban them. So the top players who can afford the best scientists, get the best drugs. Lenny Dykstra said that he just looked up a doctor in the phone book in the early 90s, and asked for something that would help him keep up his endurance....and he was given steroids. So it's all nonsense......why the big deal in MLB, and not other sports? Because Congress wanted a distraction from the war crimes that were being committed in Iraq....and the steroid hearings by Congress were on tv every day, and were very dramatic. STEROIDS WERE NOT THE MAIN REASON FOR THE INCREASE IN HOME RUNS! In the five years after they started testing, the total number of home runs hit REMAINED THE SAME! The truth is, a juiced ball was introduced in the early to mid 90s. Everybody started hitting homers, even little infielder were hitting opposite field homers on inside out swings! Everybody's HR number soared. BTW, they stopped testing for steroids a few years ago, so what do you think is happening now?

As a mets fan dont lump all the crackheads on the team in 86 in the same boat. although many of them had substance abuse issues . Not all of them did . Gary carter barley even drink alcohol let alone crack or steroids . And dont throw shade at the big hurt . He was always against it and he was always gigantic and his body broke down like a normal human .... F the steroid guys . I dont care that they destroy their bodies because its their body . But not all steroid users was barry bonds or clemens . The hundreds of guys battling to make a roster spot who did it clean lost jobs to dirtbags who were cheating . And bonds was the face because he was a dick to fans and he was breaking the records . So it wasnt hard to dislike the guy . Screw Bud /owners/ coaches and players who watched and let it happen ... hank is still the HR king

Frank Thomas never used steroids I don't know what planet you live on. But the dude was all natural and he was a fucking beast in college. Sorry but already I don't like your video and I'm just not a fan of the like bare minimum research you doing to somebody and then go say dumb crap like that.

What a shame.

MLB got what it wanted when they needed it the most and looked the other way when attendance was down after the strike years and PEDs use became common place. Then, when the time came, turned on them and let the dogs of shame out to those very same players.. Bud Selig is a huge POS !!

Great video! Nice shot at 4:03 of California native Fred Dryer in his rookie season (1969) with the Giants.

This has got to be the most disgusting commentary on the steroid idiotic so called problem. IT IS JUST A SPORT WHO’S BIG BUSINESS ACCOMPLISHMENTS RECORDS AND OTHER CRAP IS INSIGNIFICANT MEANINGLESS TRASH. THE WORLD HAS MORE SERIOUS ISSUES OF IMMENSE IMPORTANCE TO WASTE TAXPAYERS MONEY CHASING STEROID USERS TO PROSECUTE OR HAVE THE FBI CHASING😂. WHAT A CROCK OF WASTED ENERGY HAS BEEN CREATED IN AMERICA WITH SPORTS. IT IS JUST BIG BUSINESS AND A LOT OF MONEY SPENT OM PEOPLE PLAYING SPORTS NOTHING ELSE. NOT SO IMPORTANT WHEN IT COMES TO ENDING WORLD PROBLEMS AND IF IT ADDS TO THE PROBLEMS THEN GET RID OF SUCH A INSIGNIFICANT NO MORE FUN SO CALLED PASS TIME.

Cheaters

Dude, you’re not funny. Just tell the story.

What racist media? Race baiting hack journalism

The steroid era started in the 1970s and continues to this day. Ask Reggie Jackson about steroids. Plenty of folks in the hall of fame who were on steroids.

There was also a young Zack wheeler and revitilized bartolo colon.

Steroids didn’t ruin baseball, The Mitchell Report did

Imagine Barry goes on the juice at 30 years old the record book would have been rewritten

Cheaters

Stop with the "cheating" BS, it's so lame, the playing field was LEVEL, no cheating involved, so please, STFU with the cheating crap!

Good video. You made an important point how steroids weren't viewed as cheating bc it wasn't enforced in any way. The one issue I had was about Clemens. His body didn't change....nowhere to the degree Bonds or Mac bodies changed. Clemens was just fatter at 38 than he was at 23 like any guy. Also, you made a rather big mistake. Frank Thomas was never suspected of steroids. In fact, he was basically the only person in America complaining about steroids as early as 1995. I think youve confused him with Jeff Bagwell or Mike Piazza.

It’s a disgrace the Yankees haven’t won a World Series since 2009 but I’m glad it was against the Phillies. I live in the Philly area and the Phillies fans were talking so much shit and so full of themselves like they have a winning tradition or something. Then they encountered the Yankee buzz saw. It was awesome. By the forth of fifth game Cole Hamels said “I can’t wait for this to be over.”

Bonds HOF All day...Popularity poll..Ortiz..Piazza...Laughable

That was very well done. I hope you grow 😊
