Well, by now you've probably heard that Ruben Rivera, one time Yankee pheenom, demonstrated that he lacks anything between the ears. He ("allegedly") admitted to stealing Derek Jeter's glove from the locker room, and possibly previously stole stuff from Clemens. Since the clubhouse is supposed to be sacrosanct, he was quickly dumped from the roster.

I heard a good comment on this on ESPN radio this morning. Mike Greenberg commented "Obviously, stealing from the locker room is looked on in baseball as a worse crime than drug abuse and wife beating, since the latter 2 never result on being cut from a team".

Of course, the fact that Rivera is a backup outfielder instead of All-Star doesn't seem to hurt either.

From what I have read, it appears that this was a problem of his once before as well. WHat kind of an asshole can you be if you are resigned with a team that obviously feels you have something special, only to throw that chance away by theiving (allegedly) from your teammates?

I'm sure once George pays for his rehab he'll be back on the roster in some form (ala Gooden and Straw) - but then I suppose it depends on how much of a hard-on George has for him.

Agreed - imagine if Jeter or Giambi were discovered to be a closet Winona Ryder! It would probably be hush-hush, and we (the fans and sports page readers) would probably never hear about it - ahh, the politics of baseball!

Actually I think Rivera will never be back. Rumor has it that the players voted him out. George may give 4th, 5th, and 6th chances, but not if it will upset his star players.

Strawberry's crack & whore binging never upset Jeter, Williams, et al.

Wynona's innocent. In the security video, the only thing she's stuffing into her purse is the paper wrapper from a soda straw.

She seems like such a nice person. And since she's an actress, I don't think there's any real reason for her to steal, other than the feeling of trying to do something wrong and not get caught....wait a minute: that's a reason in and of itself. I take that back. She, like everyone else, has a reason to steal. But regardless, I don't think she would do it.

It rubs the lotion on its skin. It does this whenever it's told.

Use all your well-learned politesse, or I'll lay your soul to waste.

Rubin said: Everyone makes mistakes. I haven't killed anybody.

So it was ok for you to steal because there arepeople like Osama Bin Ladan around? What a douchebag.
