the sports world is out of control
Bonds, a known steroid user, about to break one of the most-cherished records in American sport at least partially because of cheating.
Mike Vick, once the face of the NFL, about to end up in court and maybe jail over what essentially amounts to animal murder.
Then it turns out that NBA games have been rigged for at least two years by one crooked ref being controlled by the famed Gambino crime family in NYC. And maybe there are more refs, who knows.
And then the Tour de France, already starting without Ullrich, Basso and Landis because of doping, ends up kicking out the best team in the race (Astana) because of Vinokourov and the very next day, the likely race winner, Michael Rasmussen, is out of the Tour for being shady and lying. Of course, the Astana team leaving takes out another one of the best Grand Tour riders in the world, Andreas Kloden. The field basically doesn’t include the supposed 5 best riders in the world. At this point, who knows how good they or anyone else is at cycling?
And to top it off, Gary Player says that he thinks 10 PGA golfers are probably using steroids.
This is nuts.

All the more reason to start watching hockey Nat! The best scandal the NHL can drum up is a little underage drinking at a bachelor party and legally betting on hockey games in Vegas.
