Welcome to my blog…

I’ve been quiet since the Mitchell Report was released. No surprises, though disappointment, as I expected (see below from my ESPN-hosted blog). I wanted to believe Pettitte was above the dirt, but apparently no one is spared, even professed god-fearing men. (which is why I find so many of these bible-bashers incredibly hypocritical, but that’s another topic for another time.) Now, about Schilling: While I personally can’t stand Schilling, I do find his blogging generally, um, interesting.

This is not track and field. This is not Marion Jones. This is a team sport with 25 players on a side. Taking away wins is incredibly short-sighted. Who’s to say that all 25 guys on the other team are lillywhite pure?

Personal awards? Again, who’s to say that #2 was totally, unequivocally clean either? [sidebar #1: How come he didn't mention Gagne's Cy Young award or Tejada's MVP award?]

I’ll leave the issues about proving innocence to guys like ShysterBall since I don’t have a legal background. (I HIGHLY recommend anyone reading this to bookmark Shyster. Worth a daily visit for a way-above average, intelligent view of the game and the issues)
