wow, that is so mind blowing, I almost expected to be rick rolled. I guess 50 games is the penalty for a 1st offense now? I wonder when this was?

Damn! That's the first time a BIG name has actually been caught.

And yet another black eye for baseball.

I got a text about this about 30 mins ago and essentially didn't care as it's becoming less and less shocking to hear about big names, but once this comment put it into perspective, I'm pretty pissed about this one.

HOLY SHIT!
Fuck the Doodgers.

The only reason I care is because this might make the rest of the NL West hold on to their tradable parts longer, because they might have a chance to be in the race. Without Manny, the Dodgers probably aren't gonna be able to run away with that division. Other than that, I don't give a shit.

When Manny took a half-assed swing at a slider in the dirt in Game 2 and the ball flew into the bleachers...yeah...so that's how he did it, I guess.

His representatives say that it's not a steroid, but a prescription from a doctor. Right.
I expect next we'll hear that his cousin injected him.

No, at least Baseball is at least now doing something.
It's a black eye for a douchebag.
