After testing positive for PED's, 100 game suspension, retired instead. This testing is going to not only kill baseball but football as well. Joe Biden is a fucking idiot!

how so?second time he got caught ,why bother playing 62 games at age 38 or so.rays took a chance with him anyway he always plays by his own rules anyway.he skated past the drug test's when he was putting up monster numbers ,he's only good for 20 or so homers now the rays are better without him.

This isn't about Manny, it about the testing that's going to kill baseball and other sports.

Perhaps a title change for the thread then?

what kind of idiot gets caught TWICE, seriously? baseball contracts are guaranteed, he could have hit 5 home runs this year and he still would have gotten paid. Why even take the chance on getting caught AGAIN
is he really that stupid

Excessiveness.....on ALL levels of society these days.

dov · « **Reply #10 on:** April 08, 2011, 05:45:23 PM »

My point being...your arguement(agreed) is that "fans" of professional sports won't recover from the inflated #'s and abilities that have been established from use of PED's. That, the hallmark of records that have occurred will never be touched again without PED's, will leave these "fans" unfullfilled.
That is just a sample of our excessive and spoiled society. This sickens me. I will totally appreciate the league leading 29 homeruns. I guess I'm old school. No wonder the divorce rate is 60% and most people are over-weight slobs making every excuse in the book for their shortcomings. Sickening...just sickening.

Its illegality is unjust. Buying into it is called being a sheep.

I know, it's bullshit. But I don't think breaking the law, breaking the law, is the right course of action, there should be a bigger effort to change the law than what it is now.

Greatest right handed hitter of the past 15-20 years and he wont go to the HOF because of this.

I don't even think the legality is even an issue, most get it legally the ones that don't are idiots. Unless a doctor is under investigation records are confidential.

Yes Joe Biden is THE idiot politician reading steroids.

Who signed it?

Anabolic Steroid Restriction act of 1990

Hint: Moses talked to a burning _ _ _ _ .

Who said it?

“Unfortunately, some in professional sports are not setting much of an example for our children. The use of performance-enhancing drugs like steroids in baseball, football and other sports is dangerous and it sends the wrong message: that there are shortcuts to accomplishment and that performance is more important than character. So tonight I call on team owners, union representatives, coaches and players to take the lead, to send the right signal, to get tough and to get rid of steroids now.”

Hint: Source: 2004 State of the Union address to joint session of Congress Jan 20, 2004

Hint: The burning _ _ _ _’s son.

Somebody call the Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaambulance. Cheating is for the weak. Oh that's right...drugs are only the "finishing touch". Fuck that noise.

As for Biden, he's a Democrat what do you expect, an IQ above room temperature? His belonging to the extra-chromosome set doesn't excuse someone taking dope to succeed. Grow some stones, the lot of you. What a bunch of manginas.

How is that Joe Biden's fault? This witch hunt had been going on long before Obama and Biden tool office.

Here's Manny's jersey last year while the team was in San Francisco as it was hanging in the clubhouse.

Cheating....it's actually an even playing field. The only thing that make uneven are the ones that are not on gear. Yes, I know this for a fact.
