I Love David Wells

Not like something unnatural or anything, I just love the insane.

Wells was hoping to play for the Yankees, again, but he pissed of The Boss last time he was in New York. So, he is a Red Sock this year. He has had two, 2 year stops in New York already in his illustrious career. He won a World Series once in each of those stops.

Our boy Wells is going to have a nice vacation, being suspended for 6 games.

His suspension was the result of a confrontation with umpires, where he made contact, and spit at them. Of course he denies this.

Wells lost his appeal, and alleges he lost because Commissioner Bud Selig is retaliating against him for his criticism of the Commish.

Wells has said that Selig has drug his feet on the steroid issue, especially in the Raphael Palmeiro issue. Wells asserts that Selig waited until after the Hall of Fame induction to make it public.

I have to admit, it wouldn't surprise me.

As a businessman, and a baseball fan, I agree with David Wells on one thing.

It's time for Bud Selig to resign.

Selig may be doing everything right, but he has a perception problem.

It's time for him to go.

If Selig loves the game, he will resign, and let someone take over that can come in with the perception that he is tough on steroids, and will clean up baseball.

Even if the new guy sticks to the status quo, a new face would do wonders for baseball.

Go ahead David, keep talking shit, even if you don't always have a strong relationship with facts.
