It's the disappointment of realizing the reliance of 24's writers on recycled plot devices is killing your enjoyment of the show on the same day your copy of Baseball Prospectus 2009 arrives. The usual one-day 24 hour moratorium on details will be observed, with the exception of that link a sentence ago.

Juice 2: Electric Boogaloo

As you all know, I tire of the steroids / PED discussion pretty quickly. Nonetheless, I came across this column on SI.com that I think is pretty intelligent:
Despite what the article says, I don't vindicate Mark McGwire. I also still believe that, if delivered in way that is perceived as frank, pure honesty is the best way to heal old wounds.
