Leagues should do more

Letters to the Editor
Published September 4, 2005

Major League Baseball and the NBA to donate $1-million each to the Red Cross. Is that the best they can do considering the millions these so-called athletes are paid?

Bucs need offensive line, or else

I have serious doubts about the leadership of the Bucs. Two years ago the Bucs needed an offensive line, last year they needed an offensive line, and in 2005 they need an offensive line. I think coach Gruden's 15 minutes are up.
