Isolation Thought

Sat in the Terrace Club for last night's Indians game. No, not in the prime window area, but at a regular table. I have pretty much decided if I go to the Terrace Club, it's really a chance to shoot the shit and have a few pops, because I cannot concentrate on the game. Yeah, there's TV and a scoreboard lurking in the background, but you are so removed from the atmosphere. Don't get me wrong, it's nice and the air conditioning was on yesterday, but if you're intent on seeing the game, I'd advise staying in your regular seats or watch it on the tube.

With the Olympics heading toward their close, I think the IOC did a helluva job sniffing out the dopers. There were some really big names that got caught, and that Greek scandal, especially, looks like a headline grabber for some time. But all that aside, it's a terrific story that El Guerrouj g got his double in the 1500m and 5000m races. He is an amazing runner.
