Ugly out there

In the past week:

- Tim Donaghy: NBA integrity shot to hell.
- Michael Vick: Has never claimed innocence. A monster.
- Mikael Rasmussen: Booted from Tour de France while leading -- more doping in the cycling world. There's a sport that's lost all relevance in America. (Remember that Lance Armstrong guy?)
- Barry Bonds and Gary Sheffield: Outed as both having used the clear and "excelled in the program." Thanks, Balco. Oh, but it's all racial, of course.
- Bud Selig: Yeah...
- Duke DA: Admits to never having a strong case.
- Iraqi soccer fans: Celebrate their Asian Cup semifinal victory by blowing up their own. Nothing like suicide bombing your own people to toast a big win. Tragic.
- Oklahoma football: Another scandal.
- Boise State RB Ian Johnson: Received racial taunts and death threats leading up to his own wedding -- more than likely from the same people who were cheering his 2-point conversion.
- Carlos Tevez: Probably going to end up with Manchester United. (NOOOOOOOOOO!)
- Pacman Jones: Make it rain.
- Sammy Sosa: Still a d-bag.

Is there any reason we shouldn't be hating life entirely, right now? It feels like the Four Horsemen have ravaged the sports world. Everything is stupid. Excuse me if I stop caring for a while.
