I added a summary of the steroid investigation. I 'm wondering if anyone can add links to my writing, for guys like Pete Rose, John Dowd, Voctor Victor Conte, Greg Anderson, etc. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.100.163.31 (talkcontribs) 19:32, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

I think 68 just didn't know how to code outward lks (which are now there), & was not asking for the creation of inward lks to their conrib.

[edit] Current event

I removed the "current event" tag as this is more appropriate on the article dealing with the steroid investigation, not this biography. Cheers.--Marysunshine 01:04, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Any question about there being 2 GJMs?

_ _ Under the headline "Push to Question Bonds Companion", the NYT began on Sat 2006 June 10 as follows:

George J. Mitchell is not taking no for an answer. A former United States attorney and the chief of baseball's steroids investigation, Mitchell is eager to meet with [Kimberly Bell]....

_ _ IMO that description of GJM is not up to the NYT's standards if he is the diplomat & former senator. So i am left uncertain that we are right to say that the senator and diplomat is also the US attorney (which BTW, as our lk supports, is something substantially more than an attorney practicing in the US), baseball troubleshooter, and potential commissioner. I'm encouraged that we have it right in light of the middle initial, but someone please document here a reliable source that either says they are the same person or says "sometimes confused with". _ _ If the common identity is verifiable, his entry in the George Mitchell Dab needs to mention baseball.
