America took it right in the kisser yesterday. The Mitchell Report lists 86 players connected to performance-enhancing drugs. That's right, a bunch of baseball players have used steroids. If only we would've seen this coming.

I heard a lot of commentary that focused on a weird angle: Not only did superstars take steroids, but some third stringers who never got playing time took steroids. This is surprising how?

Poor Mike Sweeney. He wasn't on the list, but that's almost as damaging as if he were.

If he was in the report, everyone would've said "See, he only had a couple of good years because he was on steroids. And then got hurt all the time because of it."

But, he's not in the report. So, you should be saying "See, if Mike Sweeney would've taken steroids he wouldn't have gotten hurt all the time."
