61 days until Opening Day...

The 2008 baseball season is upon us. The fields are lined. The players are prepared. The Umps are burning crosses. record scratches stopped. Yeah. You read that correctly. The MLB and it's infinite wisdom and preparedness at averting catastrophe, cough-cough, has tripped to a thunderous thud. After upping background checks on umps, in response to a cheating ass ref getting nabbed last year, the MLB dove more deeply into financial records, personal business and even group affiliations. In doing a background check are you supposed to find out what's going on or assert your own opinions to the witnesses? This type of investigation is completely cosmetic since after the Steroid Drama of the past 15 years the response of the league is to speak loudly and carry a weak twig. I will no longer....okay....try hard not to mention those greedy buzzards. The only mention will be of on-field contributions and players that are worth mentioning.
That is all.
