  • The tragedy of Al Unser Jr.

    Updated: 2011-09-30 16:05:45
    Al Unser Jr. reminds me of the 97-pound weakling who keeps getting into the ring with champion boxer Marvelous Marvin Hagler. Every time, Hagler doesn’t just knock the guy down, or out. Every time, he knocks him clear out of the ring. And every time, that 97-pound weakling guy keeps trying to pull himself up through the ropes and back into the ring, shouting: “Lemme at him! I can take that guy!” That seems to be the way it is with Al Unser Jr. and booze. Arrested several times in his life previously for personal problems associated with alcohol —...
