    THIS should be the only way the league should be able to discipline players. After they banned them.

    I'm still pissed about the witch-hunt that was the Mitchell report. SHOCKING that nothing came about about Manny then.

    Oh, right. Mitchell OWNED part of the Red Sox. We'll leave him out.

    Pathetic.

    Wow. This is so sad. I thought this dude was truly a great player and, regardless of how you feel about his personality and antics, played baseball the right way. *at least hitting the ball* Dude was electric when knocking the balls everywhere around the park.

    However, I want to see the details before completely jumping off the boat.

    Are these guys just plain stupid, or do they think this is the NBA? At least MLB will prosecute the best of the best if they cheat....

    Seriously, though, how can you be doing 'roids or whatever when you're that much of a star, and have that much of a spotlight? Do you think they'll just sweep it under the rug? Or have you just relied on them your whole career? Just dumb.

    This is not the NBA, people....

    Wow, he better be glad he took the contract he did. He's finished after next season, maybe even this one.

    Obviously he took something that he was unaware of it being "illegal". I dont think hes that dumb otherwise.
