3:11 But I truly believe in my heart that they are such a minority that they can never drag down sports.

3:11 [Comment From Ivan ] Do you think Manny deserves to be part of the All-Star game?

3:12 No way. Missing 50 games when the game is played in mid-July is a pretty hefty chunk out of the first half schedule.

3:12 I think the spector of what Manny Ramirez has alledgedly done has put a major damper on his appeal.

3:13 [Comment From Richie ] Back to broadcasting...is there a young broadcaster out there that reminds you of yourself when you were his/her age? Who is the best up and comer?

3:14 I can't identify that, but I will say that Joe Buck is the finest broadcaster who has come along at his age. Now he has been around for a while now, but I have been amazed -- having been around a long time myself -- how good Joe was, is, and continues to be.

3:14 [Comment From Disgusted ] Dick, you've been around long enough to know this era is tainted. Doesn't it bother you?

3:15 I honestly believe that other than Manny, the tainted era has passed.

3:15 [Comment From Chad ] Will steroids ever be out of baseball? And if so what do you think it would take to make it that way?

3:16 Yeah. 50 game suspensions for the highest ranked superstars has to be a message -- to minor leaguers and major leaguers, who have to know that they will be tested and if they break the rules, caught -- and their careers may be over.

3:17 [Comment From GeorgeNYY ] What do you think about all the empty seats at Yankee Stadium? They just 'cut' the price but it's still wayyy too much...what would you do if you were the Yankees?
