Congress Steps Up to the Plate

Bud Selig is getting his constipated hindquarters spanked by Congress in hearings today. Former Major Leaguer and current Kentucky Senator Jim Bunning joined California Rep. Harry Waxman in threatening to create their own laws if baseball doesn't pump some steroids into its regs. What does this mean? Probably very little: steroids are on their way out, pure baseball is coming back, and all Congress can do at this point is slam the door behind the 'roids.
