...speed at which humans aren't built to go isn't easy, and several title holders have crumbled under the pressure. In 1988, Jamaican-born Canadian Ben Johnson clocked a scorching 9.79 at the Seoul Olympics, but quickly had his record expunged after testing positive for the anabolic steroid stanozolol. Johnson wasn't the last World's Fastest Human to succumb to the lure of steroids. American sprinter Justin Gatlin, who ran a 9.77 at a meet in Qatar, is serving a four-year suspension for doping, and Tim Montgomery - who called the title the "top of the food chain...

"From a management perspective, we prefer to have as many options to us as possible," says one American League team executive. These rules are on the books until December of 2011. At that time, maybe MLB's leadership will have more clout. But for now, enjoy Manny Being Manny again come July. Draped...
...what about his steroid use? The fact that he admitted to cheating earlier in his career? You know what, I understand. I understand him saying he was stupid and he was naïve. You are naïve when you're 24, 25 years old. He's a kid still. A-Rod, [Roger] Clemens, those of us who've made mistakes in life, we're no different than those little girls that run around in Hollywood and act crazy too. Britney Spears, the Lindsay Lohans, it's not different than what they...
