From performance-driven MLB centerfielders iswho bat left-handed and wear the number 24 to a cry-baby coaching administration at a big-12 univervisity that sports burnt orange, many have found that the quickest way to get the recognition that your accomplishments deserve is to throw up your stats with an asterisk beside it and there you go.

You either did it or you didnt!  If you broke the rules or voted on the rules and all-the-sudden dont like them - sorry.  Why do we feel like we have to create a whole separate category or say that "situations were different" just so we can say we are the best or better at something!?  

Barry, Hank did it without steroids. 

Mac, you got spanked by a Tech team you should have beat.

lets not live our life with asterisks.  They are only excuses to argue why you didnt measure up.

ok...I am done now.
