The year in sports

In a no-nonsense 2005, Terrell Owens and BALCO fizzled, while the hard-working Pats, Spurs, White Sox and Colts sizzled.

    The Best?

    Indeed, Spike, T.O. really showed us where being the best arrogant, self-absorbed prick gets you. What happened to him this year should happen more often.

    I don't care how good he is at catching footballs. His skill on the football field doesn't grant him, or anyone, the right to be an ill-mannered lout. He can choose to be an ill-mannered lout, as any of us can. Those who put catching footballs above human decency will tolerate or even celebrate his poor behavior. But that doesn't excuse it.

    A dick is a dick, no matter how well he performs on the job.
