Sports News/Views

Yes, I did attend the Happy Hour yesterday. Yes, I will write about it later. But first...

NEWS: Former Heisman Trophy winner Jason White ended his professional career Thursday, citing his weak knees.

VIEW: Evidently this report failed to notice his weak arm. Is it really a professional career if you never play? Give me a break. I saw this on the ESPN Bottom Line -- slow news day much?

NEWS: Terrell Owens -- I know, we've heard enough already, but I like this one. From the Washington Post: "I came in to rehab and we got into a discussion about me signing autographs," said Owens, who had skipped two autograph sessions for fans this week. "In the midst of that, he just told me to shut up. I just told him, 'I'm a grown man,' and I told him the same. I told him to shut up."

VIEW: Now, call me crazy, but am I the only one who finds the "I just told him, 'I'm a grown man,' and I told him the same. I told him to shut up." part a liiiiiittle funny? Can't you just see Owens saying how grown he is and then saying "no, YOU shut up!" and then rolling on the ground crying and kicking his feet in the air because Coach Andy Reid wouldn't buy him ice cream? Waaaaaaah!!! I'm a grown man! Waaaaaaah!!! If you don't give me more money I'm gonna sit out and pout like a little baby!

NEWS: Rafael Palmeiro returns... and sits on the bench.

VIEW: Good! Now, when is Raffy gonna come out and say "The truth is, the steroids are in the Viagra"?

NEWS: Recent search that led to this blog: "yankee haters"

VIEW: Guilty as charged.

Why does Palmeiro get a 10 day suspension and Kenny Rogers get 20 days? (I realize they 'commuted' Rogers sentence - maybe MLB realizing how stupid the 2 penalties looked compared side by side)
