Agreed, fantastic read.  Though the truth of the claims are still in doubt.  I find Mitchell a little crazier when he simply accepted Gooden's "it wasn't me" answer about a story in his autobiography.   That was good enough for him?  

The claim stays until disputed.   It's guilty until proven innocent on dee-nee.com

Good ol' cupcake...    Another thing that pops in my head is that if he were that drunk, how would he remember it anyway?

Dude, you and I have to play.  You pinch hit with Mitchell up?  I can't think of a situation in which I would do that...

What would Gooden have to gain from making up a bullshit story like that?  Cupcake fucking did it...
