More Roid Rage in MLB
Alex Rodriguez did roids. Miguel Tejada cried in the public court of the media. Roberto Alomar allegedly has AIDS. Major League Baseball never seems to be able to drag it's name out of the mud.
In all honesty I never cared. Baseball saved itself from the work stoppage and rode the wave of Sammy Sosa and Mark McLiar's homerun chase to salvation. In all probability baseball knew what was going on but chose to look the other way. They had to. MLB was an all time low. They need to something to pull them out of the fire. A steroid scandal right after the work stoppage would have been the death of baseball. Baseball's popularity would probably ranked between pre-lost season NHL and MLS. To save their sport for obscurity, MLB owners and management had to look the other way.
Uncle Sam 2, Tricolor 0
Team USA once again beat Tricolor de Mexico in soccer. Uncle Sam's Army prevailed in a 2-0 in a 2010 World Cup qualifier in Columbus, OH. The United States continues to dominate the series.
I'll admit it. When it comes to certain international sports, I'm nationalistic. I get no few joys greater than Team USA beating overrated Mexico in soccer. Team Mexico has delusions of grandeur. The U.S. has a way of bring them back to earth.
