Here's a surprise: Mark McGwire denied entry to the Baseball Hall of Fame. A report from the New York Daily News that Barry Bonds tested positive for amphetamines last season. These juice monkeys continue to deny that they are taking steroids and always put the blame on someone else. Sort of reminds you of Bill Clinton's statement when sex is not really sex during the Lewinsky affair.

The blame has to also go to the sports team owners who turn the other cheek with all the drug taking going on within their locker rooms. It's all about winning. They can break the law and take performance enhancing drugs. But all is forgiven as long as they win. Change must come from the owners and the fans. As long as we continue to worship them and pay them exhorbitant salaries, the abuse will go on. After all, winning equals profit.

It's only illegal if you get caught. Can anybody say Lance Armstrong.

Everybody likes a winner. It's about getting the job done and winning at all costs. Just look at
Jack Bauer of 24.
