David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez. Brokeback "mountains."
Shocking news out of the East Coast: Big Papi is a Big Cheat!
Who would have thought big ol’ David Ortiz tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs in 2003 – just in time to lead the Boston Red Sox to their first World Series in a trillion years?
Who’s next, Albert Pujols? No way! LeBron James? You’re crazy. Dwight Howard? Not Superman.
Hey, at least people almost care about MLBers doing it. One day the rest of the sports world will start caring. And one day someone will actually test for HGH, then we can relive this whole PEDebacle all over a gain. Awesome.
In the meantime, I’m totally flabbergasted. Speechless. Can’t believe it. Can: function: no longer: somebody: get: me: some: female: fertility: drugs: quick.
Sorry if I’m over it, but this steroid chatter is old hat – kind of like that dusty, sweat-stained 1988 Dodgers World Series hat of mine.
Come on Manny, get the Blue Crew back there yo.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, Manny Ramirez reportedly failed a drug test with Big Papi in 2003, too, even though he swore up and down he’d never failed a test before (after his latest failure). Circus baby, circus.
“You guys want to talk about the game, what is happening now, we can sit down and talk for two hours,” MannRam said prior to Thursday’s game. “If you want more information, call the union.”
What a gamer.
Atta boy Manny, always focused on the task at hand. Just think pennant baby.
What’s wrong with the media? Can’t we just focus on the game people? Who cares if sports has gone to shit: and no numbers are legit: 20 MVPs*: 8 Cy Youngs*: and there’s no integrity, not to mention authenticity, in sports anymore.
We want wins. We want home runs. We want the Incredible Hulk, in dreads, hitting bombs for our home team.
“Me and David, we’re like two mountains,” Manny added for the circus. “We’re going to keep doing good no matter what … Only God is going to be able to move those two mountains.”
And this was six years ago anyway, when only 104 Major Leaguers tested positive for performance enhancers.
Just because MLB and every other major sports league still doesn’t test for HGH, doesn’t mean these guys are still doing it.
These guys are “mountains!” Freaking “mountains!” baby! Can’t be fazed!
Yeah, these guys are “mountains” all right: from a far maybe, but when you finally get up close to ‘em, nothing but mirages in the desert.
I’m over it.
1000 times yes. Has there ever been a greater divide between media fascination with this story and what fans actually think? Standing Os for Ortiz, Dodgers bring back Mannywood. Guess what, nobody cares. Good work.
