I have watched and listened to the MLB Steroids Hearing on Capitol Hill today starring Roger Clemens and Brian McNamee. 99.99% of the time these hearing are long, drawn out and boring.

Incredibly, we may have investment mogul Warren Buffett to thank for the cessation of the 24-hour ESPN A-Rod Watch. According to a recent report on CBS Sportsline, the Berkshire Hathaway founder was contacted by Rodriguez, and Buffett advised him to go around agent Scott Boras and contact the Yankees directly.
