		<description>&quot;Marvin Miller at 90 makes more sense than all of the sportswriters, fans and athletes on this subject.&quot;


Yeah, if you don&#039;t care about the game of baseball, he makes a ton of sense.</description>

		<description>&quot;Marvin Miller thinks it’s oaky for baseball players to ignore this because they cannot be replaced.&quot;


Right.
It&#039;s okay for the school bully to take your kid&#039;s lunch money, because he&#039;s stronger than he is.

And the mere fact that people involved in the game think Miller should be in the HOF is pathetic.  I mean, if ever there was a guy who put every other interest ahead of what was good for the game, it was Marvin Miller!
And now he peaks out of his hole to do it some more.</description>

		<description>You know what&#039;s really funny?

Remember how Mike Greenwell wanted his MVP award back in 1989 when he finished 2nd in the voting, because the guy who won it, Canseco, admitted to juicing?

Well, bt the time all the roiders in the game are exposed, you&#039;ll be having players who came in 5th or 6th in the voting demanding their MVP awards!</description>

		<description>I may be in the minority, but I don’t think there is that big a deal with Congress investigating steroids in baseball.


Of course it isn&#039;t!  If not for congress, who else was going to go to bat for the fan who perhaps was sick and tired of going to baseball games and watching cheaters?

Because let&#039;s be honest.......NOBODY involved in the sport, not the players union, not management, and not even the clean players really gave a crap about this issue before congress stepped in.</description>

		<description>&quot;He then went on to say that Arod’s apology was terrible and that he probably still used PED’s as a Yankee.&quot;



You&#039;re right......that was terrible on Francesca&#039;s part.  He should have left out the word &quot;probably&quot;.</description>

		<description>&quot;Even though it wasnt perfect, Arods apology was MUCH better than any of the other 200 players who have been caught and/or named in the Mitchell report. In fact, it wasnt even fuckin close&quot;



Really?  Can you show me the apology transcripts of the other 200 players who were caught?  Better yet, can you NAME the other 200 players who were caught?  
Because I find it hard to believe they all blamed persuasive teammates, their contract amount,  a drug store chain that never sold what they took, and the person who blew the whistle on them.  Or that they ran off to the Bahamas with two women after being informed they were caught, came home and dragged their ex-wife into it, then picked the Network, Interviewer, eye-liner, and lipstick they&#039;d wear for the apology!

Sure other apologies may have been flaky, but if you find me one other apology full of more bullshit than this, I&#039;d be stunned!</description>

		<description>&quot;Congrats, U.S. Congress, instead of working to fix this stimulus, you care about six-year-old events. Yay!

However, if the country were now in good times, I think it’s a worthwhile investigation.&quot;



Aha!  So wrong is only wrong if everything else is right.
Gotcha.  I love the way people use the word &quot;Congress&quot; like it&#039;s one person.
&quot;Hey, Joe Congress, get to work on that Stimulus plan!&quot;</description>
