Miami is only the Talk Magazine of baseball teams because they're hoping Reyes will be a Daily Beast.
Next you're going to tell me that Natalie Wood just turned out to be an underwater marketing scam.
Anyone watch The River tonight? As a sucker for horror movies and Lost, I did. I think I hated it, but I also think I'll be watching every episode.
super-professional ringmaster decided to call an end to the festivities right then and there.
And then immediately blew it when he couldn't resist the urge to instruct the crowd to "Headford the exits."
Unsurprisingly, her mother used to attend the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade to see Karen Carpenter.
@raysism That's a very valid point. All sports are dirty, it's just that cycling has probably been the most honest and active in trying to rid itself of that albatross thus making it's results more known and ridiculed.
And don't misunderstand me, I love cycling and wasn't trying to condemn it by any means. I suppose seeing a guy win a major race is akin to watching a guy swat 50 dingers--it's nearly impossible to keep an eyebrow down. At least cycling seems to be actively trying to root it out.
Except that the panel also widely rejected the idea that the clenbuterol came from a doping transfusion [www.washingtonpost.com] Though if that's the case, I'd like to see their reasoning for where exactly it did come from. That said, I also thought Shleck's response was somewhat telling. He didn't beat his chest, but rather said he felt sorry for Contador and essentially said, I raced him, I lost.
Again, I'm not sure what to make of all of this except for the fact that cycling is, as we know, a very, if not the dirtiest of sports. I also think there's a prevailing feeling from many of the top riders that "the other guy's doing, so I had better dope as well," to mainain some type of edge.
Sadly Contador probably never needed to dope anyway, but alas, here we are. I also think he's very lucky in his advancing age that his suspension wasn't effective today and instead retroactive, giving him at least one more shot in 2013.
I'd be training like a motherfucker if I was him.
Me too. Fuck this.
What Hume said.
While I understand where you're coming from, I disagree only because it's not so much that we're claiming the right to know about a matter so personal, it's that we were given that right when news of his sobriety and redemption became ubiquitous some years ago. The 2008 Home Run derby was such a big story largely because it was Hamilton's return to glory. Most people probably forget that he didn't even win the thing, and his resurrection was noted often that night. Same goes for his 2010 MVP award. Again, I'm not necessarily saying it's right, but just a case of the pendulum swinging in the other direction.
It's also a bit of a story because he took the media head-on and owned up, which is refreshing.

Bad move, dude. Now they'll never respect you.
Bronzehammer beat me to it.
I think so too. I actually thought that performance trumped SNL by a mile. (which ain't saying much) But Dave seemed to like it, too.
