Name your ideal foursome: Me, Dubya, Lou Piniella, my dad (with my younger brother carrying my sticks)
Final thoughts (and a last chance attempt to regain any respect on the slight chance anyone read this far already): I’ll go the other direction: I still immensely respect Brett Favre, baseball writers, in general, need to get over themselves, I teared up during all my above "favorite sports moments", and I mostly couldn’t care less about steroids in baseball. How’s that for honesty?
