"With new random drug testing rules, players like Craig Biggio (seen here) are being asked to give urine samples in their gloves." -or- "I knew I shouldn't have used cornstarch on these sweatpants."
"I wish Drayton would switch our uniforms to cotton. Cotton 'breathes' so much better than polyester" PS - that is an inside joke for all you George Costanza fans out there
