John Rocker Wants To Set The Record Straight
With all this other steroid business going on today, we feel obliged to point out that John Rocker is not going to just be ignored. He's hoppin' mad about the "irresponsible dolts of the media."...

What You've Missed So Far In The Clemens Hearings
So, here's pretty much what you've missed in the Roger Clemens testimony so far: • Clemens said the conversation in which Andy Pettitte claims Clemens admitted to steroid use was actually about "a TV show in which three older people said they'd used HGH and improved their quality of life." Oh, so...

Roger Clemens' Supposed, Alleged Day Of Reckoning
As you know, we've had a hard time getting ourselves worked up about the Clemens-in-front-of-Congress hype; someone's telling the truth, someone's lying, and what it has to do at all with the steroid "problem" is beyond our comprehension. But hey: It's possible that Roger Clemens' entire reputation...

Roger Clemens Vs. Congress ... Quien Es Mas Macho?
We find it difficult to work ourselves up about this Roger Clemens Congress business. We think it's because the purpose of this has all been so lost.

And The Wind Cried St. Mary's
Take that, teabaggers: St. Mary's proved its Top 25 mettle by jizz-bombing the San Francisco Fightin' Whatevertheyarecalleds, 76-51. Yusef Smith scored 15 points off the bench for St. Mary's. Eddie Sutton apparently had an accident on the sidelines and is still trying to adjust to a more provincial ...

Curt Schilling Has Surgery By Blog
Another thing we love about Curt Schilling's blog: When offseason news items come up, he just gives "no comments" to all media and then writes about it there. This led the following beautiful words on the ESPN crawl: "ESPN's Jayson Stark reports that Schilling has no comment." Hey, thanks, Jayson!...

Yeah, Well, Kelvin Sampson's Still A Jerk
We couldn't possibly agree more with legendary Illini basketball reporter Mark Tupper, who said, "at no time did I think Illinois was going to win that very exciting, very emotional basketball game with Indiana."
