Paging Dr. Howard, Dr. Howard, Dr. Fine

Paging the Women’s Olympic Softball Team:  Quit your crying about softball not coming back as an Olympic sport.  It’s almost solely an American game and you crushing your opponents (51-1 combined in the last Olympics, 14-0 with a no-no in this one so far) is reason enough to can the sport.  Other countries are decades away from catching up.

Paging the Men’s Olympic Basketball Team:  You beat Angola.  Quit thumping your chests.  It was Angola.

Paging Aaron Rodgers:  I hope you go undefeated as a starter this year and stay healthy the whole way.  I hope that the Green Bay Packers become as feared as they were in Lombardi’s heyday under your leadership.  Good luck to you, kiddo.

Paging the Buffalo Bills:  Keep playing well and stay under the radar of those teams in your division that shall go unmentioned.  You will be THE surprise team this year.

Paging Chad Pennington:  Good luck to you in Fishland.  I wish you well.  You deserve it.

Paging the Milwaukee Brewers and the Tampa Bay Rays:  Keep up the pressure fellas!  You’re making baseball interesting and fun again!

Moreover, you should have one by 50, not 20. And your shooting, rebounding, and defense was tepid at best.

According to the MLB website, talks are underway to get baseball reinstated for the 2016 Olympics. The drug testing criteria have been met, but Selig is still not inclined to break the season to let the pros attend. Sigh.

Try this: Move the All-Star break, add back a few double-headers, and take the two weeks off. Or are you afraid that the USA would not win gold…and your current policy is a convenient excuse?

As for women’s softball — ax it.

It’s always about the Bud when it comes to baseball. Not about what’s right and what’s wrong. He’s a tool.
