Nice read. From the article:
Q: You're a baseball fan, so let's go off-topic. What was your take on suspected PED users being rejected for the Hall of Fame?
A: I certainly would have voted for anyone who was not proven to have taken them. This idea that we can decide who took steroids or not . . . there has to be a level of proof not just suspicion. I can have my suspicions about Barry Bonds or Roger Clemens. But I don't think I should be able to keep them away from the greatest professional honor of their lives because I have a suspicion.
But I do understand the argument about the guys who were clean and couldn't measure up. I don't think a guy should have to make the decision to put something dangerous in his body to be able to make it. I like the idea of cleaning it up.
But in their generation, it wasn't cleaned up. So now we're going to punish all of these guys? I wouldn't have voted for Mark McGwire (anyway), just because I don't think he was good enough. He hit for power, that was it. But Barry Bonds? Hell, yeah, I'm voting for him.

that was a good interview
the stuff on Dwight was most interesting, and his foray into politics. The Van Gundys are an interesting bunch.

That's awfully hard but not impossible. What makes it unlikely is that his instincts make him a pass-first guy. He's not Kobe.
Q: Did Dwight think you were too tough on him?
A: No player will ever say you're too hard on them because that makes you look soft as a player. Basically, his complaint was the yelling and screaming (it was) too negative an environment.
:scustai: Dwight is such a bytch.
