Another Record Broken, Who Cares: Tonight another great record was broken and I really don't care. It will likely come out in the press in the next year that the overpaid athlete who broke the record did so with the aid of drugs, just like last years Tour de France winner, and the guy who was leading it until he got booted this year. Another multi-millionaire in football is being tried for dog fighting and it looks like he is going to get some hard time.
Ever since Pete Rose admitted betting on baseball I have totally lost all my enthusiasm for professional sports. Don't get me wrong, I love a good football game on Monday night, but I really don't care who is inside the jersey. I get a little more excited when Peyton Manning is playing (one of the few professionals without baggage to date), but besides Peyton I really don't care at all. The ONLY former professional athlete that I can think of whom I respect is Steve Largent. I wish that he wasn't a talking head for the CTIA, but everyone has to make a buck. Would have preferred to see him run for Senate. Hmmm, Vice President Largent, kind of has a nice ring to it.
So congrats to the multi-millionaire who will soon be seen doing a perp walk in bonds.
