I've got a lot of these guys' rookie cards and if you see the size of their necks and forearms compared to their size when they were first signed, it's pretty obvious that they've got a problem. For some reason everyone else has been under the microscope - wrestling, football, the Olympics - and now all of a sudden the baseball industry is going, "We had no idea," which is just insulting...

And in 2007, President Hugo Chávez set Venezuela's clocks forward 30 minutes, supposedly to make...
...deal. As Tehran has kept the world waiting over the past week, conventional wisdom has held that Iran is playing for time, testing the limits of international political resolve, and hamstrung by internal political divisions. There's a measure of truth to these claims. But more important, the reason that Iran and the West are struggling over an agreement envisaged as a first step toward greater cooperation is that the two sides don't share a common destination...
