Don't think, just pitch.

Added reliever Mariano Rivera, who was also on hand: "I always support all of my teammates. He made a mistake, but he was man enough to admit it."

True. He was man enough to admit it secretly, while under oath, to a grand jury, with perjury charges hanging over his head like the Sword of Damocles.

What's the Sword of Damocles? Well, in ancient Greek mythology ... you know what? ... on second thought, don't clutter your head. Just work on that cut fastball of yours.

It will be amusing to watch the Defenders of the Game and Yankee fans in general about face and follow their spiritual leader -- Derek Jeter -- off the cliff of moral ambiguity.
