Cork Bat Scandal
"Imagine if you were in Sammy Sosa's shoes. How would you
feel?"
By Quintin Taylor
Today when you turn on your TV to ESPN or ESPN2 or
even the Fox Sports Net Channel, all you hear is, "Sammy Sosa
is a fake, he did not hit those homeruns with a real wooden bat."
The media is making a big scandal out of this issue. They go around
at the station waving champagne corks. They need to stop acting
like little kids and put a stop to it. I think they shouldn't joke
around with this because imagine if you were in Sammy Sosa's shoes.
How would you feel? The man said he was sorry and that he had picked
up the wrong bat by mistake. I mean, he already got suspended for
eight games, and the Cubs were already in a slump. It's just messing
up his career. Everyone used to call him "Sammy the Homerun
King," but now people call him the "Cork Man."
