The overexposure to those two teams has turned a lot of people off.

How about one word?

Boring!

Not to get off the subject but NFL players do it too and no one seems to care. Rodney Harrison and Shawn Merriman to name a few. And I'm sure there are PLENTY more.

My understanding is that, until recently, drug testing in the MLB was a joke relative to the NFL program. Moreover, the NFL was more cooperative in the congressional investigations than the MLB. Finally, things like the Mitchell report revealed in one fell swoop that numerous high profile baseball players were doping. If a similar report revealed that LT, Michael Strahan, Reggie Wayne, and a few other stars were involved in doping, you might see a similar outcry about the NFL.
