Tom, did you see that study that got posted a little while back (a couple months ago) about the sexual behavior of bison? Apparently, the quieter bulls get the ladies, and a large percentage engage in same sex experimentation.

I was surprised more media didn't pick it up because it was very interesting.

Jim, I'm glad you reminded me of that study. I'll look it up again. Yes, that was quite a story and should have been more widely distributed. Much more worthwhile subject than drugged and overpaid baseball players.
