Sad Day

I have been reading a lot and anxiously awaiting tomorrow's testimonies in the latest of baseball's steroid scandal, issue #2 volume 1. i think back to 2005, when the first round of senate testimonies took place. we had three tv's set up in the living room (i was single at the time) to watch opening round coverage of championship week NCAA basketball, the golf tournament, and the steroid hearings. that day, a little part of me died when i heard mark mcguire "not talk about the past." and i lost a little bit of that child-like awe of what baseball had been in my life up to that point. what a sad day for all of us.
