Props to Glavine and Rodriguez

As a postscript to my earlier post "The Scandalous Sporting Life," let's note credit where it's due to this weekend's milestones achieved on the diamond. Tom Glavine reached the 300 win plateau yesterday, only the 23rd pitcher to earn 300 in MLB. Also, Alex Rodriguez not only reached the 500 home run mark this weekend, he became the youngest player to get to 500. Already, A-Rod has been hailed as the best hope to reach -- honorably -- the all-time home run record and eclipse that other guy who just tied Hank Aaron's mark of 755 this weekend.
