Why I Detest Major League Baseball

Owners extend MLB Commissioner Bud Selig's contract through 2012. This is the same former Brewers owner who reigned over the Steroids era in Baseball, doing less than nothing while every other sport in the world were aggressively pursuing steroids and performance-enhancing drugs.

Clemens, Congress, et cetera, et cetera. All of this, imo, is totally irrelevant after the fact. Why do you think testing is such a big deal in other sports? Because that is the only way to prove what is in an athlete's body. Having Senator Mitchell investigate this ten years too late and putting him in a place where he has to defend himself? Ridiculous.

"Congratulations, Mr. Selig. You allowed your sport to be corrupted by drugs that shifted millions of dollars in salaries from the clean to the users while single-handedly padding the coffers of all of us (the owners). We'd like to keep you around another four years."
