There's a much-awaited report coming out today from the investigation of former Senator (and current Red Sox part-owner) George Mitchell on the use of performance-enhancing drugs in a certain major North American sport.

You can go here if you want to follow the obvious reference inherent in that (with perhaps the additional explanation that the broadcasters of a certain team in that certain sport are named Gary Cohen, Ralph Kiner, Keith a/k/a "Mex" Hernandez, Ron Darling and Howie Rose, and until recently one named Tom McCarthy who just left for another team).

Or, if you really want to be disturbed, you can click this very NSFW link from Deadspin, which reports on the decision by a former Cleveland pitcher to return to his native Japan. That's not the NSFW part; that, rather, would be the site's re-revelation of the fact that said pitcher had been spotted in a piece of Japanese gay porn.

He had previously been ::koff:: sent down to the Indians' AAA affiliate in Buffalo, where perhaps he tried to make friends with a member of the organization named Buster. (Since I know who the guy in the Buster suit actually is, I don't think he got anywhere with that.)

But the best line here was not mine but rather from one of the many Deadspin commenters, who wondered whether his film career would be revived by a part in the baseball-themed movie

I am really, REALLY sorry for this.... )
