Morning Links

Some stuff to look at over your morning coffee (haven't done this in a while):

- U.S. Soccer Player Assaulted In Belgium (not because he was a US soccer player but because of his race).

- VDH on the myths that circulate - the refutation of these myths is nothing new for readers of VDH but I particularly like today's lesson because it includes the word "recrudescence" (a word I'm going to HAVE to add into my vocabulary)

- An honest look at the root cause of the steroid era (hint - its also the root of all evil) and an honest appraisal of the chances of winning the war on performance enhancers

- Jay Nordlinger has a new Impromptus up
