ESPN would provide a much better service if it focused on somebody like Greg LeMond, a man of integrity, instead of a slimeball sociopath like Lance Armstrong.

I know it is hard work being a pariah, but it isn't worth a television show.

The Belmont Stakes will be held on June 20 and will be more of a sprint.  Might as well run it at Ruidoso Downs and allow quarter horses into the race.

Good that the Oregon Supreme Court has nixed the eastern Oregon's judge who was stupid enough to believe the religious nuts' excuse for not abiding by the lockdown orders.

The dimwits here in southern Oregon hate Governor Kate Brown's guts.  She never did anything to them, but she is the stereotyped northern Oregon progressive type.

This would explain Roe v. Wade plaintiff Norma McCorvey's seeming decision to side with the antiabortion activists.  McCorvey, for the record, NEVER had an abortion but went through the pregnancy and gave her child up.

She was all over the place on this issue.

When Norma McCorvey, the anonymous plaintiff in the landmark Roe vs. Wade case, came out against abortion in 1995, it stunned the world and represented a huge symbolic victory for abortion opponents: “Jane Roe” had gone to the other side. For the remainder of her life, McCorvey worked to overturn the law that bore her name.

But it was all a lie, McCorvey says in a documentary filmed in the months before her death in 2017, claiming she only did it because she was paid by antiabortion groups including Operation Rescue.

“I was the big fish. I think it was a mutual thing. I took their money and they’d put me out in front of the cameras and tell me what to say. That’s what I’d say,” she says in “AKA Jane Roe,” which premieres Friday on FX. “It was all an act. I did it well too. I am a good actress.”

Maybe she was telling the truth.
