OT Lying ****-weasel

What a pantload. What two adults do in private is nobody's damn business
but their own, and when one of them is married and what they're doing is
hanky-panky, lying about it is not only acceptable, it's downright gallant.

Most Americans know this, hence the second term.

Exactly. Or you suggesting baseball should sink to the level of
politics?

Dick: You like baseball?

Jane: No.

Dick: You like fishing?

Jane: No.

Spot: So, how long have you *been* a communist?

California can be a very strange place. From what I've (skimmingly)
read and heard, it's politics can be among the most strange parts of
it. And who can account for what voters will do?


Charles Barkley
spit on a fan; did he ever suffer any real repercussions? Tyson's continued
repulsive activities only earn him larger and larger purses at a time when
his skills have turned mediocre.


Had I not long since formed the opinion that pro boxing is fixed, I'd
have been even more disgusted with the ruling bodies for letting that
scum ever get in a ring again.

What do you think would be the true
outlook for Kobe Bryant if convicted but sentenced very lightly? Probably
not much. I could go on and on. But, I guess one can't expect any real
rationality until people can put sports in it's proper perspective (yeah, it
really is just a game...and likely a game *you* or *I* are not even
participating in) and recognize that just because someone is on television
doesn't make them some kind of superhero.

Or juries. How about the case of the Heisman trophy winning ex-footballer?

I don't think they were illegal in body building at the time.

But I believe it is illegal now, and I have not an inkling of doubt it's
still quite widely used, though admittedly, I have no direct information.
It's also illegal in professional cycling, for example, but is known to be
extremely rampant there. Of course, there's the on-going question of which
of the latest home run kings are on what drugs, Daryl Strawberry was
certainly no poster child for baseball, Lawrence Taylor and many other
football players have admitted widespread drug use, there have been a number
of arrests of both NBA and NFL players with drugs, and I'm sure this list
could be quite significantly enhanced to make the point that drugs can
easily be found in the professional sports world (and of course, the
non-professional world -- how many Olympians are caught for drug use?).

I think it all starts at home.

Yeah, but out of curiosity... how do you REALLY feel about it??

Where he screwed up was in letting the lying little **** weasel sign a
letter accepting a lifetime ban instead of proceeding with the official
hearing which would have done the same thing without subjecting us, 14
years later, to this sorry spectacle and self-serving circus.

Pete Rose bet on baseball, he shat on the game, close the book on the
son of a bitch.

FWIW, I couldn't agree more. I am truly tired of the man.
