Gallagher should have read a little history before he wrote this half-baked column.
Lots of people got to witness what a PATHETIC JOKE that Waxman and Congress really is!!! LOTS of PEOPLE CRINGED!
Congress shall oversee Major League Baseball and hold regular hearings to ascertain the extent of drug usage therein.
Selig and Fehr are incompetent to do their jobs and keep Performance Enhancing drugs out of the sport. Theyve had plenty of time and warning and disaster to get it done. This has been going on for years. As a fan, I dont care about the past , but I want the crap swept out. I want them to test for everything, including blood testing. Clean it up or cite them for anti-trust violations and open baseball up to real competition. Or let the govt enforce the need self regulations.. Im just sick of these feckless idiots.
Any sports commissioner that is called before Congress should refuse. When pressured by Congress, the commissioner should threaten to dissolve the league to avoid any potential problems. I doubt any politician would want to be linked to destroying the NFL, NBA, NHL or MLB.
At least when they are wasting time on this, they aren’t doing any other damage to this country.
I am not sure why we pay these people to represent us. The congress seems to be nothing more than an extended welfare system. Or perhaps an extended intern delivery system.
Libertarian ping! To be added or removed from my ping list freepmail me or post a message here.He is 1,000% correct and right on the money. It is NOT the business of government. Not one bit!
MLB is dreaming if it thinks it can ask for government favors and not invite government oversight.
That is the way of the world.
