Josh Hamilton is a beast


Josh Hamilton is a beast beyond magical proportions. A rehabbed crackhead alcoholic just shutdown the home run derby. I really don't think folks understand how amazing this dude is. He might become one of my five favorite players, for real. Ken, you better get you a jersey asap, because you gotta claim a dude like this.

Plus, what's the first thing he did after hitting those home runs last night? Thanks his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He's not a perfect athlete, but I appreciate his struggle and folks have to recognize what's really real and what really ain't. People make mistakes, but you've got to let people be an inspiration. Even Barry Bonds, Michael Vick, Tonya Harding, Ben Johnson, etc. Props to Josh, you just made the Ed The Sports Fan's pantheon of great players.

Oh, T-Minus 10 days to Vegas...we're gonna be CHEESING ALL THE WAY!!

    Congrats to Mr. Hamilton on an incredible turnaround. The power of prayer is truly miraculous.

    What's also amazing is that he was able to use and abuse all kinds of illegal drugs and substances four for years without ever getting arrested. Heath Ledger and other hollywood superstars also seem to easily evade the law until it's time to check in (to rehab) or, unfortunately, check out.

    "Statistics" show that blacks are incarcerated at an alarmingly high rate based on their percentage of the population.

    I wonder if many law enforcement officials take the easy route by making most of their arrests in "high crime" areas and arresting those with a high melanin content.

    I'm not sayin' that blacks don't commit crimes; we certainly do and must find a way to do better. However, the crime statistics are going to be skewed if you're constantly targeting a certain subset of people for suspected criminal behavior.

    What an amazing performance by Hamilton. He should have been crowned champion. He redefined the phrase "no one remembers second place".
