Perhaps this is just another case of what happens when “kids have kids” and the parents miss out on their party years, lose their high school friends and grow up with their own children, or Amanda Lynn Livelsberger could just be up for worst or most “chilled-out” (depending on your own stance) mother of the year. The AP Reports that Mrs. Livelsberger (allegedly) gave her 13-year old son marijuana to promote good behavior (i.e. finishing his homework and cleaning his room). Also, she smoked (marijuana) with the child’s friends and occasionally sold the 17 & 18 year old children pot and heroin. The Hanover, PA’s Po-Pos pinched Livelsberger for possession, corruption of minors, endangering the welfare of children and possession with intent to distribute drug paraphernalia.
I hate to pull the trigger this early in the week, but I am going to go ahead and give Amanda Lynn Livelsberger my weekly “What the F?” What can I say? She deserves it! Wait-STOP THE PRESS-before I get ahead of myself, I have to give an honorable What the F? mention to Barry Bonds for his refusal to sign the ball from his 713th (one away from the Babe) homerun. Yes the lone Bonds' fan in Philly sitting in section 202, row 7, seat 24 was Air Force and Iraq veteran Carlos Oliveras who caught the homerun #713 ball Bonds hit in the 6th inning off of Philly’s pitcher Jon Lieber did get an authenticity stamp from MLB, but not a signature from Barry. When asked at the press briefing if he would sign the ball, Bonds replied "No". When Mr. Oliveras asked at the end of the press conference if Barry would sign the ball, Bonds just lowered his head and got up from the table. Afterwards, He did pose for a photo with Carlos, and then (oh yes, this is rich) had the moxy to ask for Mr. Oliveras' signature. That's right; Mr Oliveras, please put your John Hancock on this release order so ESPN can use your image on Bonds' show, "Bonds on Bonds". Hey Barry, have you ever heard of quid pro quo?
It was a close one, but Bonds doesn't get the weekly What the F? But have you ever seen someone make being a jerk (read being a Richard Smoker) such a point of pride? By the way Barry, the race card crap is getting a little old. You will soon pass the Babe-that is unless Tonya Harding (thanks Bobo) intervenes and pipes your knee-and the next guy in the list is African-American. So I just don't get the racism that you are crying (wolf) about. That being said, the real reason people don't want to see you break the Babe's record is because you used steroids (cheated) and treat your fans like dung on the bottom of your shoes-something to amuse you as you toil with your so called project for posterity. And that is not what America's game is all about.

Thanks to people like baseball announcer Bob Uecker this nonsense may end. The San Francisco Chronicle asked Uecker this week to comment on Bonds and Aaron. Uecker refused to discuss Bonds and proceeded to heartily praise Aaron.
One more time: Henry Aaron is the greatest home-run hitter in baseball. In breaking Babe Ruth’s record, Aaron survived racial threats and taunts beyond anything Bonds could ever imagine.
Any attempt to portray Bonds as a victim in his pursuit of Ruth for second place on the all-time home run list is a direct insult to the greatness, on and off the field, of Aaron.
