"10 Minutes"

"60 Minutes Wednesday" aired a report tonight claiming that four Carolina Panthers football players had steroid prescriptions filled by a South Carolina doctor during the 2003 season, and just prior to the 2004 Super Bowl. The doctor says that he only prescribes steroids for legitimate medical use. "Do I consider healing and repair, and regeneration and recovery, and working at optimal function, a legitimate medical function? Yes." Here's the story from the CBS website-- basically a transcript of the televised report.

It's now apparent how Dan Rather plans to spend his retirement over at "60 Minutes." He'll be filing 24 minute reports on the status of other retirees, such as former General Electric CEO Jack Welch. Donned in a sweater, Dan joined Welch on the golf course, and grilled him and his second wife on the scandal of their romance and marriage. I should have watched "The Simple Life."
