Cheaters Galore

The amount of cheating and bad behavior going on in the sports world right now is rather ridiculous. These athletes, whom we idolize, abuse their power and respect, and then end up falling flat on their faces.

Dan Wetzel on on Yahoo.com sports has a great column about all of this crap, and really doesn't spare anyone. I really like how he wraps the whole thing up, referring to the return of college football season:
We really need the return of a pure and honest sporting diversion that never suffers from cheating, referee controversies, reckless profiteering, political corruption, poor leadership, grade fixing, hundred-dollar handshakes, stripper recruiting parties or, of course, gastric bypass malpractice suits.
Yeah, that's right Charlie Weis. Fuck you.

PS: Cycling, after crapping on Lance Armstrong's reputation with unproven claims of doping right after some of its most popular years due to his dominance, is now racked with more doping scandals than ever before. That's karma if I ever saw it.
