Manny Ramirez suspended 50 games for steroids

he seemed contrite...Dr made a bad choice for him ...but he(Manny) took responsibility...

who's got him in Fantasy league?? chortle

Me.

Sure. I believe him.

Just like I believe A-Rod, Clemens, Petitte.

Right?

riiiighttt!

I don't know what I think. But then I didn't follow him with the Red Sox or the folderol with the Dodgers.

Well, he got to LA and suddenly last year he hit some crazy-ass average (.350?).

he hit .396, with 17 HR, 53 RBI in 53 games after geing to LAD.
if we extrapolate the numbers over a full 162 game season... it comes out to 52 HR, 162 RBI!

Since the alternative is to put asterisks all through the record books, and we certainly don't want writers to wear out their little star keys, consideration should be given to allowing sports figures to use whichever performance enhancing drugs that could cause various sports to be the height of entertainment. You have to admit, it would be highly entertaining to see how far they could take it (if it were legal.)

Well, I don't like to see people kill themselves all in the name of sport, all for my amusement. Not saying steroids are uniformly fatal but they are nasty, nasty things.

a little song I found about steroids...
