I heard this morning that neither Tyson‘s pre-fight rampage or yet another pending rape charge will have any effect on the Nevada State Athletic Commission‘s decision to reinstate Psycho-Miko’s boxing license.

I just heard Stuart Scott on Sportscenter talking about Barry Bonds‘ season this year. He said something that just blows me away. I hadn’t — until now — really appreciated Bonds’ home run extravaganza. The 73 (SEVENTY-THREE!!!) home runs in a season is amazing, obviously. But Scott just said that Bonds hit a home run every twelve swings. Not “at-bats”. Swings. A home run every twelfth time he swung the bat. That is just incredible. I cannot believe that.
