Preview of Tomorrow's Congressional Hearing with Major League Baseball

Earlier today, I wrote a 12-part Question/Answer for SI.com that previews tomorrow's Congressional hearing featuring former Senator George Mitchell, Bud Selig, and Donald Fehr.

I address such topics as:

  • The types of questions likely to be asked of Mitchell, Selig, and Fehr
  • Whether there will be finger-pointing by Selig and Fehr
  • Whether Roger Clemens' name and situation will come up
  • Whether Donald Fehr will argue against new testing
  • Whether other pro sports leagues will be following the testimony
  • Whether Congress should be spending its time on the topic of steroids and baseball and how might this topic influence the 2008 Presidential Election
It's lengthy (about 2,500 words), but I hope you have a chance to check out the Q/A.

Update: Rick and I are interviewed by the Washington Times' Mark Zuckerman in his Jan. 15 article "Hearing Could Be Influential."

Update 2: On Tuesday, I wrote two additional pieces for SI.com:

Tejada Facing Trouble with Investigation

MLB Could Punish Teams, Too
