Earlier this week we reported that Chuck Knoblauch was served a subpoena to testify in front of Congress about allegations made about him in the Mitchell Report. As it turns out, that wasn't entirely accurate: as of last night, Knoblauch still hasn't been served ... because he can't be found! Apparently the former big leaguer has managed to live off the grid since retiring from the game a few years back. Even so, this doesn't exactly inspire much confidence in the U.S. Government, not when you consider that the New York Times was able to track him down for an interview just last month. (Although, the last line of that interview was telling: "Don't tell anybody where I live," he said.)
Peter Abraham of the LoHud Yankees Blog has the best take I've seen:
A man matching Knoblauch's description was just spotted at the Grover Cleveland rest area in New Jersey in line at the Roy Rogers. He seems to be headed to Canada.If U.S. Marshall Tommy Lee can't find him, I think Dog the Bounty Hunter is still looking for work.
U.S. Marshall Samuel Gerard is now on the case and has promised "a hard-target search of every gas station, residence, warehouse, farmhouse, henhouse, outhouse and doghouse in that area."

Did Knoblauch violate a serious Federal law? Or is the Government suffering from a serious neurotic obsession over steroids? Judging from the federal government's tendency for obsession over Iraq and airport security and its obsessive failure to acknowledge the realities of global warming or the genocide in Darfur, I believe the latter.

"Look, there he is!".....just kidding-made you look.
What a joke. The Govenment knows there's a problem. Why interview the retired players? Can anyone change the past? Fix the problem now!
