A short stay in Philly for Cliff Lee; Philly not worried

Cliff Lee is involved in a three-way way trade which would send him to the Seattle Mariners and bring Roy Halladay to the Phillies. Now when i first saw this I thought that it was kind of pointless for Philly to trade their best pitcher in the World Series and a Cy Young candidate from last year. Both Cliff Lee and Roy Halladay are phenomenal pitchers, but Lee is left-handed and Halladay is right-handed. I put some thought into the situation and came to the conclusion that although being a blockbuster trade and one of the biggest I've seen, it is honestly good for everybody. Cliff Lee would be the best pitcher on most rosters, but at the same time so would Halladay. Halladay fits the Phillies the best because his right-handed pitching will complement Cole Hamels left-handed pitching. The Yankees won the World Series last year because the Phillies didn't have a dependable right-handed starter. Roy Halladay will fill that void and the Phillies could easily go back to the World Series. This bothers me a little bit though. Baseball is beginning to turn me away since all the best teams sign the best players just because they have more money. Granted Florida is not the best of teams, but the city of Seattle is putting most of their money in acquiring Cliff Lee. Teams like Cincinnati and Cleveland don't have the money to make these moves which leaves me with no hope. I just don't think baseball is very exciting anymore.

Tiger Woods Controversy

Tiger Woods has been in the spotlight non-stop lately and obviously not for good reasons. As you all know Tiger got in a car accident outside his home on Thanksgiving evening after allegedly getting in an argument with his wife Elin. The original story was that Elin saved him by smashing the back windshield with Tiger's five iron. Now we all know this isn't what happened. I mean come on, all she had to do was open the door and drag him out if he was seriously injured. Considering he was going under 23 mph since his airbag didn't deploy probably suggests that he didn't need "saved". Recently voicemails and text messages have been discovered revealing that Tiger had a couple of mistresses. This explains why his wife Elin would chase after him with a golf club and later move out of their enormous Orlando house. My take is Tiger simply couldn't resist the constant women throwing themselves at him since he is famous and loaded for that matter. This makes me think different about Tiger and athletes as well. If golden boy Tiger Woods is getting caught cheating on his wife then other top names athletes might be as well. I just think these athletes shouldn't be getting married if they are going to sleep with other women. Just don't get married if that's what you want to do! Marriage isn't meant to be temporary. Marriage is a permanent bond to be faithful for life. Do it for the right reasons.
