no need for separate HR lists.

Aaron and Maris are still the kings.

Doing time at a good spay neuter clinic would be appropriate for Manny in my opinion. He could be a patient!!!

Look, the fact is so many guys were doing it that I almost can understand the mentality of players feeling that they needed to juice in order to keep up. That being said, it is still wrong even if others were doing it and Manny is an utter disgrace. When he was lazy in the field and disruptive in the clubhouse everyone looked the other way just because Manny could hit. Now that he's been exposed, what is the point of his continued existence in baseball? Same goes with Plaxico Burress. The wreckage that these players have caused to their teams is just totally inexcusable.

hearing that it was a sexual enhancer. throws a cog into everyone's opinion so far.

being a dodgers fan, i'm glad he's in la. up to this point he's done more good than harm for the team/city. i'm not that surprised at the name(s) testing positive anymore...steroids, PEDs, doctor's prescription whatever. maybe i'd feel better if it was some meds from a doctor and not steroids/enhancer, but it wouldn't necessarily change my perception of him.

No T...just the opposite he's been a godsend. this does bring some clouds to the 80 degree day but can't say i'm totally shocked. whatever my bigger worry is the team sustaining until july.

edit: oh i see now where i messed up and confused you...i mixed up my "harm" and "good"

Quan- you think Manny's been bad for the team?
I think he's been great since he got here- just the merch sales alone last August and September were thru the roof. And he was the best player in baseball those 2 months. This year he's been the key to the teams phenominal start, so I've got to disagree he's been bad for the team.
With the economy though attendance has been down this year, despite a record 13 straight home wins. They've still got a lot of talent, but this will hurt, both on the field and at the box office.
