I’ve been home the past three days nursing a case of the flu.

One thing I’ve learned is that daytime TV really stinks, although I did enjoy watching “The Longest Day” on Tuesday.

Today, however, I’ve been watching the congressional hearing on steroids and baseball.

I don’t know if Roger Clemens used steroids or whether he’s committed perjury. I’m not real sure that I care, except for the reporting that there’s evidence youngsters — even children in middle school — are using the substances, endangering and in some cases ending their lives.

While many sports fans and others are focused on what’s being said in Washington as I peck away at my keyboard, my mind keeps wandering to what the folks at Indiana University will be telling us sometime today about men’s basketball coach Kelvin Sampson.

The Associated Press reported this morning — I posted in online from home at TribTown.com — that the NCAA claims Sampson misled IU officials about the self-reported recuiting violations involving three-way phone calls.

I’m eager to lean more about what the NCAA has found and what IU officials have to say in response.

Thanks for reading my blog, and thanks for logging on to TribTown.com.
