Sports tidbits...

Can you believe that the Superdome will be demolished? In an interview yesterday, a Superdome official stated it was beyond repair. The roof damage was apparent, but he didn't describe the interior. Can only imagine how bad it is after toilets backed up, trash piled up, and most of it still remains under water. The field must be trashed. Just stunned that it will actually be gone after all those memories. Deserves a graceful exit...

Saints owner Tom Benson needs a PR class (and a kick in the ass). He's already moved the team in his mind - to his old stomping grounds in San Antonio. Last time we checked, Texas already had 2 NFL teams. Even worse, he was planning on screwing the season ticket holders. As if they haven't been through enough already? "As we move forward together, the Saints look forward to serving as a leader in the rebuilding and revitalization of our great community." What a load of crap...

Barry Bonds. We hoped he would have stayed away. Do you really think he's coming back to help the Giants into the playoffs? He's in it for himself. "One Way Barry" only needs a dozen homers to pass the next and last "white" guy on the list. Hey Barry, we thought you said Boston was racist, and it turns out it was you... Stay home. Never ever rooted this hard against any record being broken before...

Lance Armstrong. We were a little perplexed when he announced his possible "un-retirement". But when we learned his motivation was to piss off the French, we applauded. Loud. Their attempt to discredit his 1999 win (and name) has backfired. He is already one of the most driven athletes on the planet. Now they've given him more motivation. Go for #8. Stick it to em...
