According to TMZ the Oakland A’s Coco Crisp had a sure fire story to get him off the hook for a DUI arrest but like Austin Kearns (who said something to the effect that I’m a Pro Ball Player (a celebrity) get me outta here) it just didn’t work… Damn. Did the Police hear that one a million times? I don’t know. I’ve never used it.. just try acting really really sorry and respectful (which is genuine.. not sorry for doing whatever minor thing of course but just really sorry for myself that I would have [click to contimue reading...]
There’s a Mercury News Editorial that makes the case for Barry Bonds becoming a leader for cleaning up baseball. .. ? So Bonds who supposedly used the juice, and used it successfully I might add, to become this super hitter. ..

The officer reported that Kearns was weaving and flashing the lights of his Caddie Escalade. … The weaving I sort of get.. hey if you’ve had too many Bourbons & Cokes.. but flashing lights. .. Driving that was so outrageous that a cop off duty, probably sick of his job and wanting nothing to do with another [click to contimue reading...]
Matt Anderson looked to have an amazing career ahead of him in 1997 when he was drafted first overall. And he had the arm to back it up & 100 mph fastballs to prove it. Things were looking great in 2001 when he saved 22 games for a, shall we say, not the best Detroit Team that year. .. Then like sometimes it happens to all of us. Not even doing something stupid, he was warming up, OK maybe warming up a little faster than he should have… but maybe not. In either case during that [click to contimue reading...]
