Unfortunately, Jean Valjean washed out in the minors.

Miguel Tejada has gotten his sentence for perjuring himself in front of Congress and the entire world. Our obviously seriously upset leaders saw that he got…

1 year of probation and community service.

For a professional group of angry white guys, the sportswriters histrionics union is curiously silent.

Look, personally, I give no crap about steroids. If I could double my income and tack five years on my career, I’d be screaming for a needle. But what I don’t get is the unequal treatment. If we’re going to watch the sports commentariat melt down in jowl-quivering rage because A-Rod used steroids back in the day, shouldn’t we be treated to similar temper tantrums when Tejada is convicted and sentenced for lying to Congress?

Or,  just gonna throw something out here, Manny Ramirez acting a little weird roughly makes him comparable to Hitler. Miguel Tejada lying to Congress gets a shrug of the shoulders.

Not that I’m saying we need more wordy columns with the word cancer in them, not by any means. All I ask is some consistency. Where should we be outraged, sportswriters?

Today’s justice lesson. Sporting superstar lies to Congress–and I always hear how these guys are role models even when they don’t want to be–in a pseudo-important investigation, 1 year of probation and community service. Hungry homeless man robs a bank of $100, 15 years in prison.
