Spring training starts this week with pitcher's and catcher's reporting. Woo-hoo! That means warmer weather is around the corner (right?) and baseball will be back in full swing soon. It's been a pretty dismal winter so far, and not just because of the snow and cold. The Bulls have been disappointing and hampered by injuries to key players...same goes for the Blackhawks, though I believe the best is yet to come for that young team...area college basketball teams aren't exactly lighting it up...inconsistent at best. The Bears season ended far too early...so we're left with looking forward...to baseball.
But will baseball ever be the same again if Roger Clemens and Brian McNamee continue their very public he-said, he-said battle? At this point, it's difficult to believe either of them, and what good is this doing anyway? To prove to kids that it's not good to use steroids or human growth hormone? That cheating is wrong? That's the reason Congress is using to investigate the issue. And haven't children already learned that? I'm not sure what the benefit can be other than to ruin one's reputation forever, be it McNamee or Clemens. Enough on that...at least baseball is giving us some conversation pieces.
