POPSMLB All-Star team of the decade? So says Tom Verducci of S.I. Great story (brief) at the source filled with some surprising stats to back his argument up. IMO, it's close but I'd give the player of the decade nod to Ichiro...

POPSPerspective on Derek Jeter and steroids I totally agree with this - there is no way in my mind that Derek ever did steroids. If it turned out that he did, i would be extremely shocked and saddened. I admire the way he handles himself tremendously.

POPSDear David Letterman.... “At the end of the day, David Letterman’s show is David Letterman’s show, but as Jay Leno recently pointed out, by being overtly political either way, you alienate half of the country. As someone who has always been a fan of David Letterman, I have become more and more disappointed and yes, dare I say disgusted about his attitude toward Sarah Palin and her daughters. Is it too much to ask to leave a 14-year-old girl out of a late-night joke? Apparently in today’s media, yes it is, especially when it is the daughter of a Republican politician.” *** “Firing Mr. Letterman would send a clear message that CBS will not tolerate any of its employees — even an established media figure like Mr. Letterman — making demeaning and degrading comments about women.”

POPSLet's Break Down This Letterman/Palin Deal
That's right, Ann Dunham Soetoro was born on 11/29/42, she married Barack Obama, Sr. on 2/2/61, and their son was born on 8/4/61. So lil' Barry would've been conceived somewhere around his mom's 18th birthday, most likely before, with a man who was not her husband. And his parents' subsequent marriage wasn't even legal, because Barack Sr. was still married to a woman in Kenya. Ann was in the same situation then as Bristol is now, except the father hung around a little longer. And she didn't have a seething mob dogging her heels and then running back to their news networks and late-night talk shows. "It doesn't matter which Palin daughter got knocked up in that fictional scenario," you cry. "It's totally irrelevant to the joke!" Hey, don't tell me. Tell Willow Palin. She's the one who went to a baseball game with her mom and dad, and got slammed for it on national TV by a very wealthy and prominent older gentleman who has a history of problems dealing with women.

POPSInstead of laughing at Arod, maybe we should feel bad for him. If the way he's described below is true, then i honestly don't think there is anything to laugh about. Despite being a great ballplayer, he obviously has very low self-esteem and confidence. What's funny about this? Believe me, i've poked fun at A-rod for years, seeing through his odd body language and facial expressions...seeming to exist on a frequency all to himself. But, at the end of the day, he's human. And if what causes him to act so weird is a deep insecurity about himself, than i feel bad for him like i would anyone else who suffers from that feeling.
