Somewhere in the background, Queen is singing: "And another one falls and another falls, another one bites the dust...ah...another one bites the dust." Tejada is among the latest to fall to the fickle fate of who Congress decided to subpoena to testify on PEDs at the Hill. If you got called and lied, you're screwed. If you didn't get called, like A-Rod and only lied to 60 Minutes, you're just tainted.
Sometime soon, March will be over. Bonds will either be found guilty or not guilty. The idiocy of the WBC will be over and we can actually watch baseball and try to forget what a mud puddle our favorite sport has become.
Ah well. There will be more names and more news. Clemens will pop up on the news every once in a while as the feds build their case. McGwire will have his name appear in just about every PED story because he wasn't about to commit perjury. And on and on it will go.
It will be interesting in the morning light to find out Tejada's punishment. He'll probably get a token slap for pleading guilty and saving us taxpayers a whole bunch of money. But his story will soon disappear.
Don't want to write about this stuff, but it keeps popping up into every fan's consciousness, so it's hard not to write about it. Every fan wants it to go away, but it won't. And so it goes...
