Sports this week . . .

Seems some of the sports headlines this week were about anything but sports . . .

Lebron can have his cake and eat it too!

Anywhere he wants,

except on ESPN.

Pitino has 15 seconds of fame

and a short shot clock…

Fat Albert,

still is . . .

And apparently dropping a deuce didn’t help clear the air either…

Terrell Owens has a new theme song

Baby, if you’ve ever wondered,
Wondered whatever became of me,
I’m living somewhere in Cincinnati,
Just Ochocinco, the Bengals, and me.

Got kind of tired packing and unpacking,
Town to town and the reality tv dial
Romo, Trent and Donovan weren’t meant to be,
So Carson throw to me once in awhile.

I’m at the Bengals in Cincinnati..

Silence is golden…

There was a good article, actually I’m sure several hundred at least – but I will reference the one in my local paper the Washington Post, regarding the latest announcement of yet another banned substance scandal.

In it the writer makes the following statement…
“Baseball or the federal government, which seized the list, should release the names of every player who tested positive for a banned substance in 2003, if for no reason than it would clear the names of more than 600 major league players who refused to sully the game or themselves that year. “

In fact, I think we should expand this concept / list to include all sports and reprehensible activity, such as the ones on this NFL crime watch list …

Then, let’s put some teeth behind these lists and make folks accountable. Players should be suspended, without pay, for breaking the rules; if for no other reason to reward those who do honor the game and their god given talent.
