doping and what -- no third chance?

See you in a couple of weeks, kids.

Parcells takes a stand on principle

Fans don't understand the NFL's drug policy. They don't understand why
players are constantly given second, third and fourth chances instead of
being tossed off their respective teams. They know there are reasons, but
they don't agree.

Those fans have a new hero in Bill Parcells...

And it is Parcells too. Remember a few years ago when the Cowboys were about
half druggies and felons and their owner Jerry Jones didn't give a **** as long
as they were winning.
Another team will have Carter signed by the end of the week, watch.

Sad, but true. The message being sent is that it is ok to be a dope and
use dope.

Like Nebraska, like Florida... How well we teach moral lessons to the young.

Try doing some googling for Dwight Gooden and Daryl Strawberry if you think
baseball actually has a tough policy on drugs.
Cycling is an easy target unfortunately. The MLB Players Association would
crucify anyone from the management of the sport that suggested any of the type
of crap that Lance is being tarred with if they had all those negative tests.
Same for the NFL.
This spring a few baseball players spoke out about Balco and called for a good
verifiable testing program and almost immediately had a visit from the Union's
enforcers telling them to shut up.

Gooden and Strawberry are pikers compared to Steve Howe. He's the poster
boy for 10 strikes and we'll give you another chance.

No one compares to the ultimate Red Sox player:

ON DRUG TESTING:
"When they asked me about mandatory drug testing, I said, 'Well I've
tested them all but I don't think it should be mandatory.'"

He's a very humorous guy.

Mr. Lee! Between him and Sparky Lyle I've lauged my ass off.
Sparky was kinda flaky, Bill was the shining example, and a hell of a pitcher
too until he got mugged by a Yankee thug.
