Oh, and one other baseball thing

There's been an awful lot less about the hopelessness of the likes of the Kansas City Royals in this year's "Why Baseball Is Dying" articles-does any sport have media coverage as relentlessly negative as baseball?-due to the hyping of the steroid controversy. While I have mixed feelings about the crusade to save the game there as well, mixed feelings are better than complete horror, I suppose, which is what salary caps evoke in me.

So thank you, Victor Conte. Millions of baseball fans owe you more than they know.
