Time for Favre to decide

It is late April.....the NFL season ended almost four months ago for the Green Bay Packers, yet Brett Favre has not made a decision if he is going to play next season.....

Over the last week or so I have heard some NFL analysts defend Favre’s hesitation to make a decision.....they said he earned the right to take his time....personally though, I think these analysts are dead wrong....

Football is a TEAM sport....not an individual sport.....and with Favre holding the Packers hostage while he calls press conferences just to say he hasn't made up his mind, free agent players are being signed by other teams....the NFL draft is less than two weeks away.....

If Favre cares about the Packers and their fans, he would have made a decision by now....instead, the entire world of the Green Bay Packers is revolving around the guy from Kiln, Mississippi.....

Yul Brenner was classic as Ramses in the movie The Ten Commandments.....

There is talk that Texas’ Vince Young could drop as far as 12th or 13th in the draft.....I don’t believe it....he will not get past the Oakland Raiders....

You can write this one down in ink, A.J. Hawk is a tremendous linebacker....

I have yet to receive my Mel Kiper draft book.....

After this disastrous season in New York, don’t be surprised if Knicks head coach Larry Brown bows out.....especially after his health scare this week....

Watch out for Lawyer Ron and Bob and John for the Kentucky Derby....

The best unknown player in the NBA is Orlando’s Dwight Howard....this kid scored 28 points and grabbed 26 rebounds on Saturday night....

I’m not a Cleveland Indians fan, but I do like Travis Hafner and Grady Sizemore – a lot!!!...

Whatever happened to former San Francisco Giant and National League MVP Kevin Mitchell??.....

This year must be a bad year for seasonal allergies....I must have taken at least six Allegra pills over the last two days.....I am a five tool allergy person: sniffling, sneezing, itchy ears, runny nose, and scratchy throat.....

Personally, I believe that most of the people who live in Iran don’t want nuclear power or this showdown with Europe and the United States.....it’s just unfortunate that some nut job is the country’s president....

Stop the Witch Hunt

Someway or another, Barry Bonds is going to go down....CNN reported that a federal grand jury has been hearing evidence for more than a month about whether Bonds perjured himself during his Dec. 4, 2003, testimony....that is on top of Major League Baseball’s investigation concerning steroid use in the league.....

I believe baseball should investigate Bonds....and if there is clear proof that he knowingly took ‘roids, then he must pay the price....

However, I do not believe the federal government should pursue a case against Bonds involving perjury.....even if Bonds lied under oath, so what!!!.....how quickly we forget that a sitting President of the United States lied while under oath when being asked about a personal incident in his life....

The freakin President of the United States lied while under oath!!!!....

So what is the difference between Bill Clinton lying under oath and Barry Bonds???.....

Bonds, did not commit a capital crime....he did not lie to protect himself or someone else involving a crime such as murder, rape, robbery, etc......he lied to protect himself, just as Clinton did when he said, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman!".....think about it, the only person Bonds hurt was himself.....

So why are some of the people who defended Clinton for lying under oath now wanting to see Bonds go down?.....we all know Bonds is an arrogant ass, but please, tell me what is the difference between what he is accused of and what Clinton flat out did???.....is it the color of Bonds skin?.....

Let’s get this straight, I am not a Barry Bonds fan....but, I think the time has come to stop this Barry Bonds witch hunt outside the realm of baseball.....let Major League Baseball continue its investigation and finally put an end to this ongoing Barry Bonds drama.....ultimately, Bonds will be judged by his peers and the fans of the game....

Quick Hits

I think the Today Show made a good choice by hiring Meredith Viera....instead of going for some young tart, they selected a mature veteran who has already made a name for herself....in the short-term, I think Viera will be more successful, but overall, Ms. Katie should do fine at CBS....

The Wood Memorial runs today.....this is a big prep race before the Kentucky Derby.....

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have to be steamed at the NFL schedule makers....the Bucs have to come north 3 times in the month of December – to Cleveland, Chicago, and Pittsburgh....

Early line for the NFL opener....Pittsburgh - 5 against Miami....

Surprise – the Milwaukee Brewers and Detroit Tigers are the only unbeaten teams left in Major League Baseball.....

I’ll stay take Tiger Woods to win the Masters....

Whatever happened to Raymond Floyd??......

Will Randy Johnson go into the Hall of Fame as either a Seattle Mariner or Arizona Diamondback???.....

The Chicago Sun-Times sports columnist Jay Mariotti is a rare breed....Mariotti cranks out a column almost everyday....

Yesterday, the Indians traded Brandon Phillips to Cincinnati....for the last three years the Cleveland media bragged that Phillips was a five-tool stud and the next coming of Robbie Alomar....and the Cleveland media also wrote that Russ Branyan was going to be the next Mark McGwire?.....makes you wonder about Andy Marte....
