Canseco's pissed that Big Mac called him a liar. He wants a public polygraph involving him and Big Mac.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 12, 2010 -> 08:18 AM) Take the other perspective. Let's say he'd come out in 2005 and said all the things he said yesterday. That he did it, that he wished he hadn't, that he didn't really think that it helped him despite his enormous late-career power surge, that he couldn't remember which drugs he had used, and that Canseco was right in general but was wrong on the specifics. This would have been before stuff like the Bonds indictment, the Mitchell Report, Clemens, Palmeiro's suspension, etc. Wouldn't it have: been an even bigger story, and made him come out looking just as bad? You can project all you want as to what would have happened to him. The nation loves the truth, and as a country is quite forgiving (and will cheer Tiger at his first tournament, etc etc). We're all over A-Rod, Pettitte, etc... we don't care anymore. If they give Big Mac immunity, which they should have, we probably avoid the Mitchell Report or more players are possibly willing to come clean during that period. I blame the Attorney General. I'm not going to jail just to be made an ass of on tv, I can make an ass of myself (I'm not here to talk about the past) and spent the next 5 years enjoying the world and my freedom.

I'm pretty annoyed this morning. I hop in the car and on the way to work I pop on Mike & Mike. It turns out Mark McGwire wanted to come clean and testify in those infamous, televised hearings. He told the "prosecution" he would come clean, that he'd used steroids, etc etc, but of course he wanted immunity. They went to the Attorney General, made the offer (which would have been HUGE for those hearings) and he denied the immunity. Big Mac then agreed that he wouldn't talk about the past in the hearings. He did not perjure himself, but he sure wasn't going to say something that would have him wind up in the slammer. He did nothing that any of us wouldn't have done, and now the nation has spent 5 years making fun of his "not here to talk about the past" statements, when he was more than willing. They should have given him immunity and that would have been much less of a joke. I still like Big Mac.

The Book of Basketball, Bill Simmons is awesome.

80% of the league was on the juice... Big Mac just happened to be the best at the time in terms of power.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jan 11, 2010 -> 03:19 PM) I also would think its only fair to remove all pitchers who admittedly used illegal pitches, any player who corked their bat or was caught cheating, etc. If you want to remove cheaters, remove cheaters. If you want to create scapegoats, well the HOF is doing a great job. WINNER

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jan 11, 2010 -> 03:05 PM) It's on my hit list. I played it for a minute at BestBuy... on the memories of my childhood. Exactly. The Wii's entire library of worthwhile games is all based on our childhood memories.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jan 11, 2010 -> 03:03 PM) A whole lotta people got Wii's for Christmas is my guess. Yeah, add to that it's probably the most popular title behind the new Mario game and I see why. BTW, i've played the Super Mario Bros Wii game, its > Mario Kart Wii. Just snag that and you'll have a blast.

Weird that a game that old would be hard to get ahold of...

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Jan 11, 2010 -> 02:41 PM) Did you see Scottie Pippen on The Cleveland Show last night? http://statestreetsports.wordpress.com/201...inging-cartoon/ Note to self: Thank you for quitting on the Family Guy a few years ago, thank you for only watching American Dad once, and thank you... thank you so much, for never considering The Cleveland Show. What a pile of steaming s***.

Heh.

I didn't expect to see him land there... should be interesting. link

NBC can be f***ed.

We can handle a random loss here and there. I'm much more concerned with what kept Hossa out.

My favorite scene in the history of Seinfeld is the episode where Elaine's neighbor has a dog that won't shut up. She, Kramer, and Newman "take care of" said dog by stealing it and leaving it on the front stoop of someone's farmhouse... but it snags some of Kramer's shirt and brings it home. Authorities show up, yada, yada, yada. So we cut to a policeman at a door, and it's opened revealing Newman. Without a look of surprise on his face, and a cigarette hanging from his mouth, "What took ya so long?" Oh man, that gets me everytime. However, there's not much in Seinfeld that doesn't get me everytime... Jerry collecting money from Elaine over the Putty bet, and laughing with a cigar. Brilliant. I could go on all day. But yeah, that Newman scene above is great.
