This isn't baseball-related, but sports medicine coverage in general is something shy of laughable. From an article on ESPN's Front Page:

Associated Press

Shelly Finkel said an MRI showed a complex tear of the lateral meniscus, and that Tyson couldn't even walk on the leg Saturday. He said Tyson's ex-wife Monica, who is a doctor, read the results.
(Emphasis Added)

Those of you that read UTK will know that the lateral meniscus is cartilage and not one of the knee ligaments. Those of you that follow boxing will remember that Mike Tyson's ex-wife was a pain management specialist, certainly not someone I want reading my MRI.

I once saw Mike Tyson before a fight. He's not much taller than me and for a brief second, I had that thought of "He's not so bad. I could take him." Then the rest of my brain kicked in and realized I'd end up in adult diapers if Tyson connected with my head.

Now, I'm not so sure. I still won't try it. Boxing's not what I do. Sportswriters should do the same - if you can't do sports med, don't.
