Curious George to the Rescue?

Major League Baseball will launch an investigation to discover what the general public already knows...that a significant number of baseball players have used steroids to enhance their careers.
ABC News reports that former Senator George Mitchell "will head the investigation effort, though he will not be the lead investigator."
MLB has finally taken serious action that could lead to serious inquiries into the drug use of prominent players such as Sammy Sosa, Rafael Palmero, Gary Shefield, Jason Giambi, but most especially Barry Bonds.
The release of "Game of Shadows" has finally forced MLB's hand, due to the seriousness of the reporting done by both Mark Fainaru-Wada, and Lance Williams.
Already many companies are refusing to endorse Barry Bonds, and may decline to advertise with him should he reach either Babe Ruth's home run mark of 714, or eventually beat out Hank Aaron for the home run record.
