Yep, they paid $5 mil to win the WS.

Fired a few people? Lost a couple draft picks? How badly did all that hurt the organization? How did those penalties help the organizations (Yankees, Dodgers, etc.) they cheated to beat?

Did they vacate the WS "Championship?" Nope.

Vacating the championship would have been the only meaningful repercussion.

Totally neutral on this, I’m ok with Braves, but I’m a big Dusty fan -- ombandit 11/01/2021 07:51AM

Will. Once the title is erased from the record books. ** -- BAMRising 11/01/2021 08:51AM

Eh, not sure I want to see a team with a 26 year drought blow a 3-1 lead. -- KCHokie2 11/01/2021 06:56AM

I want Houston to suck it, just like against the Nats. They didn't get hit -- UEMcGill 11/01/2021 07:16AM

Same, may Houston forever lose WS-clinching games at home, go Braves! ** -- BROman Hokie 11/01/2021 09:11AM

How do you feel about New York sports? ** -- BobG 11/01/2021 07:00AM

Not a Yankees fan, but did appreciate their exhibition game in Blacksburg. -- KCHokie2 11/01/2021 07:08AM

At what age did you lose your soul? ** -- Hubman 11/01/2021 12:32AM

I guess that means you feel the same way about White Sox fans -- VTHokie2000 11/01/2021 01:02AM

Don’t you realize that all of history that for back has been -- VPI63 11/01/2021 09:15AM

Can you come up with a comparison from the last 100 years?… -- Hubman 11/01/2021 01:42AM

Here are more recent MLB scandals -- VTHokie2000 11/01/2021 02:04AM

Any of those teams blatantly use technology to win a WS? -- bluehokie 11/01/2021 08:44AM

But there were repercussions ** -- VTHokie2000 11/01/2021 08:47AM

Yep, they paid $5 mil to win the WS. -- bluehokie 11/01/2021 08:59AM

Vacating a championship is not really meaningful though -- VTHokie2000 11/01/2021 10:43PM

You might have a hard time convincing the Cheats that. -- RJHokie 11/01/2021 10:48PM

They have money to burn though, so they would have spent it regardless -- VTHokie2000 11/01/2021 10:52PM

I wish the NCAA would have held out so the Cheats woulda spent at least -- RJHokie 11/01/2021 10:56PM

The NCAA basically does what its members tell it to do -- VTHokie2000 11/01/2021 11:00PM

Still, no balls…… -- RJHokie 11/02/2021 09:46AM

If the majority of members are "happy," then no need to rock the boat. -- VTHokie2000 11/02/2021 7:15PM

Tonight the Astros got what they deserved ** -- bluehokie 11/03/2021 12:03AM

I believe it got down to the NCAA not wanting to expend any more funds -- RJHokie 11/02/2021 7:27PM

Likes the Pirates because of the cocaine scandal——-> ** -- BG Hokie 11/01/2021 06:42AM

Free Pete Rose. He bet on his team to WIN. No biggie. -- 3TechFanz 11/01/2021 06:30AM

Yea really... just cheapens HOF -- OldRetiredHokie 11/01/2021 07:41AM

Jesus man, you could have just taken my original post as a joke…. -- Hubman 11/01/2021 02:33AM

I suspect a majority of teams have been guilty of one of those things -- VTHokie2000 11/01/2021 08:34AM

Yep, they paid $5 mil to win the WS.
