I despise Manny for dogging his way out of Boston but it seems here that his problem was not taking the list of proscribed drugs to his doctor and not running the prescription he was given by MLB. This would have generated a therapeutic use exemption which would have prevented this situation. Hope that other players learn from what happened to Manny. And Smitty, you have a monster sack calling anyone from Boston a cheater after the Yankees' history.

If you don't like baseball, don't post in baseball thread. I don't like hockey or soccer, but you don't see me jumping into their discussions making jokes about how boring they are and demanding explanations why people like them.



EDIT: On topic, about Manny, not surprised. I will admit I did take some glee reminding some friends what a big part that juicing cheater was to 2 Boston WS wins.

Not sure where a demand was made.

I looked at it as having a different opinion like with cigars. Some like a certain Marca or what have you and some don't. People are allowed to voice their opinion either way.

To Smitty and all baseball fans I might have offended please accept my public apology. No harm was intended.

I'm really trying to understand the excitement of this game.

Please help.

What about OBP????

"And at the plate we have Jack Hoffman.....
Jack sure knows how to take a pitch......
Ohhhhh, there's ball one... did you see the way he just watched that one go by??
Amazing, what technique."

I can recall last year on another thread where a Red Sox fan was telling a Dodger fan that they'll get fed up with his chit sooner than they think
