Selig gets tougher steroid penalties – With the threat of federal legislation looming, MLB playes and owners agreed to increase the penalties for steroid use to a 50 game suspension for first offense, 100 games for a second and a lifetime ban for a third. Ok, all you ‘doctors’ out there, it is time to get to work to create an even better masking agent cause it ain’t cheating if you don’t get caught! And by the way, getting MLB to act and do something may actually be the first accomplishment of the Bush administration.

Andruw Jones gets robbed – I could have sworn that the MVP was supposed to be the player whom without, the team would have been sunk. Andruw Jones was that player this year. Andruw dude, you got robbed. On a team loaded with offense, Albert Pujols was just the best of the lot.

Steinbrenner throws out more money - The Yankees agreed to terms with Hideki Matsui on a four year $52 million contract once again proving that the Yankees think they can buy a championship. With their payroll, not only should they win the world series every year, they should go undefeated. Isn’t it great when they don’t!? – Oh, yeah, I HATE THE YANKEES!!

Kurt Busch, where art thou brain? – It has been a rough year for Busch. First he fails in his attempt to become the first back to back champion since Jeff Gordon. Then in May he cusses at NASCAR officials while racing in Darlington. Then (it keeps going!) he intentionally rams Jeff Gordon’s car at Martinsville. And now, the icing on the cake – he gets a criminall traffic citation for reckless driving and suspicion of driving under the influence. Ahhh, yes, another athlete who doesn’t know how good he has it and goes and screws things up. (We should have a whole category for these guys). Yes, Kurt, you are rich, drive a race car for a living, and have the IQ of a dirt clod.

McNabb out against the Giants – After single handedly losing the game against the Cowboys, insult has truly been added to injury as Donovan McNabb is unlikely to play against the Giants next week. His ego – uhh groin – is bruised! Oh,how I would love to have a tape recorder on T.O. right now…that would be fun to hear!
