Major League Baseball commissioner Bud Selig says that the league tried to address the issue of steroid use as far back as 1995. "I don't want to hear the Commissioner turned a blind eye to this or he didn't care about it," Selig told Wallace Matthews of Newsday. "That annoys the you-know-what out of me. You bet I'm sensitive to the criticism. The reason I'm so frustrated is, if you look at our whole body of work, I think we've come farther than anyone ever dreamed possible." Selig also said that baseball's current drug policy, instituted with harsher penalties in 2005, is working. "Starting in 1995, I tried to institute a steroid policy," Selig said. "Needless to say, it was met with strong resistance. We were fought by the union every step of the way."
