Nanny State Eyes Major League Baseball

Apparently our congress-critters didn’t have enough on their agenda with terrorism, taxes, and social security. They are now setting their sights on steriod abuse in major league baseball according to this article. I’m no fan of drugs (or baseball for that matter), but I really don’t see any reason for the Federal Government to waste any time at all on this subject. It appears to me to be another symptom of the ‘do something disease’ that all politicians, from either side of the fence, suffer from. They never seem to go chasing after the issues that matter, instead focusing on things that most people can’t really argue against; but that really are none of the Federal Government’s business.

Baseball is perfectly capable of policing their own. And if they don’t then the fans will let them know when they can no longer stomach the multi-million dollar contracts, incessant whining for new taxpayer funded stadiums, and abusive behavior.
