The Cat's Diary
Day 983 of my captivity.
My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash or some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my strength. The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape.
In an attempt to disgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet. Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates my capabilities. However, they merely made condescending comments about what a "good little hunter" I am. Haters!
There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the power of "allergies." I must learn what this means, and how to use it to my advantage.
Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this again tomorrow, but at the top of the stairs.
I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches. The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released, and seems to be more than willing to return. He is obviously retarded. The bird must be an informant. I observe him communicating with the guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe. For now...

Catch 22
Did he, or didn't he?
Do you believe the trainer? Or the player?
Honestly, it is believed here at Givener, that both are lying to a certain extent. But I do believe the Roger did take steroids. But here 'lies' the catch 22. Does it really matter? Whether he did or not, yes, tarnishes his reputation - but it WASN'T ILLEGAL!! There were no rules in baseball saying that HGH or steroids were against MLB policy. Clemens found a way to be dominant within the rules, and thus did so. If I were him, I'd just shut up and enjoy the rest of my life. Why deny it? Pettite manned up. Is Pettite a Hall of Famer? Probably not, but as I grow older, I'll remember Pettite as a guy who was a big game performer. I hate him as much as I hate Jeter, but you cannot deny their ability to come up big when it mattered.
So Clemens 'cheated' - who cares. If he gets in the Hall - Pete Rose belongs there as well. The biggest difference between the two is that Rose did something that was illegal - he bet on baseball. But really, how can he gamble the fact that he has more career hits than anyone in MLB history. If Clemens goes, so does McGwire, Rose and Bonds.
What do we think here? None of them go. The most deserving is Rose - but he broke the rules, thus pays the consequences. If MLB wants to instill drug bans, they have to set a precedent and not let these players be eligible for the hall.
Oh, and for the record, we think he's a class act pointing the finger at his wife for using HGH for a magazine cover.... nice

Game winning goal where Gill was hooked right after Antropov got a hooking call from hooking somebody with the heel of his stick.
Sundin Ties it.... For the record - the first scrum in front of the net a Carolina player covers the puck with his hand in the blue paint - no call
