2. The whole thing seems very surreal to me. MSM hit it big this AM.
Why does congress regulate baseball to begin with? Don't they have better things to do? Like ANYTHING else for instance.

3. Once they do, then they can get onto the REALLY important stuff.
they need to hold some hearings on Brit-Brit's parental skills or lack thereof.

5. For Gods sake. I would make them legal to use............
in professional sports. What the hell do I care. If they would prefer to ruin their health so they can make the ludicrous salaries they make then let them. Just don't allow their achievements be recorded in the record books and no Hall of Fame.

7. Congressmen like to appear on TV
When they hold hearings on fixing the Alternative Minimum Tax, there is some news coverage.

If they hold hearings where baseball players testify, the hearings will likely be televised live on several news channels and perhaps ESPN.
