PED, Steroids, Fertility Drugs...I know we all must be sick to our stomachs having to listen and watch everyday as the game we grew up with, grows into something that we cant stand.
For every Bobby Sclaes story (which if you dont know, google it!) there is a story about a story about players hurting the integrity of themselves and their league. The story of pricing out the ''rowdy'' yankee fans, so when you watch a game on tv, you cant hear the two strike roar of the crowd.
Why are the Yankees trying to price themselves in the same category as the Lakers, whose fans would rather be seen on TMZ and sit on their hands for the whole game, rather than embrace it? Lord knows we dont need another article about tarnished figures, so we should look to the people that make us remember why we play, or watch the games. No more Vick stories, Favre's re-re-re-retirements, no more Bonds, or A-Rod stories. You cant watch a telecast of any sport without hearing 1 story of these. What we need is a story to captivate us into the game again, or the major 3 sports will fall into what the beloved 4th sport (hockey) has fallen into. Not loss of fans, because there is plenty. But we need to step away from business and back into love of sport.
Where are the Billy Chapels, the Jimmy Dugans, the Michael Lewis(beer delivery guy to living the dream as an NFL player) of sports at? its time to have Pedro Cerrano do soe voodoo to help us love sports again. Or at least help the owners and players remember. Because I dont want to cry for our sports any longer.
