Say it ain't Sosa

When then Sports Illustrated writer Rick Reilly asked Sammy Sosa if he had used steroids year's back, and Sosa repeatedly denied the possibility, then went ballistic when Reilly told him he had a nearby testing facility if Sosa wanted to prove it, you had to have your doubts about Sosa. When he ballooned from a skinny player to the size of a mid-90's WWE superstar, you had to have your doubts. And when he suddenly forgot how to speak English in front of U.S. congress, you had to have your doubts. But it was only a matter of time before another name off of the infamous 2003 survey testing came loose again, and Sosa's going to take his share as baseball again hasn't figured that it is best to just let the entire list out and be done with it...if you were wondering why the silence from Cristiano Ronaldo in the days after his move to Real Madrid, it might have something to do with him hanging out with Paris Hilton in L.A. Here's hoping he took his Madrid physical before hooking up with Pariskank...sounds like the Ottawa Senators are trying to accomodate Dany Heatley's trade request. Bet on a move west...the Toronto Raptors are looking at bringing back Carlos Delfino after he spent a year in Russia. No need to print playoff tickets yet...Toronto Blue Jays closer Scott Downs came to bat last night in the 10th inning for the Jays. He stands in and takes five pitches and looks more likely to hit one to the moon than swing. On the 6th pitch, he swings and hurts his foot, and it looks like he'll be out on the DL. Interleague play is a disaster for pitchers when they do something they normally don't do (see Wang, Chien-Ming). Hello, BJ Ryan, closer!. But hey, at least the Jays won for the first time in 7 Interleague games...with Manchester United, Chelsea and Barcelona interested in Franck Ribery, not hard to figure why Bayern Munich is suddenly contemplating selling the star midfielder...have a great Wednesday.
