ESPN makes me sick. These pices of dung are going on and on about performance enhancement drugs, when Yahoo! already published an hour ago that Manny was a taking a sexual enhancer!

it was a sex enhancer HCG is the name of it. It's a fertility pill and helps keep the flagstand up apparently.

I get it that's it's on the banned list and by all rights he will serve the 50 games just for being dumb and not having a trainer approve it.

But he's also apparently taken 15 tests in the last 5 years and passed all of them. To tarnish the guys reputation who love him or hate him is one of the best hitters of our lifetime and first ballot hall of famer seems harsh.

I guess he did the crime and will do the time, but it's unfair to label him a steroid user......


Dodgers will still probably go 48-2 in his absence

This.


...The drug policy is getting a bit out of hand I think. But I tell you what, if I was being paid millions of dollars I'd have one person on staff just making sure I wasn't breaking any rules.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer team. :rolleyes:

Couldn't have said it any better myself.

Dodgers will win the world series hands down, if they can add another reliable starting pitcher.

Not so fast - he may be just covering up the steriod use:

Two sources told ESPN's T.J. Quinn and Mark Fainaru-Wada that the drug used by Ramirez is human chorionic gonadotropin.

According to the story: "HCG is a women's fertility drug typically used by steroid users to restart their body's natural testosterone production as they come off a steroid cycle. It is similar to Clomid, the drug Bonds, Giambi and others used as clients of BALCO." According to the story, male athletes usually use HCG after a cycle of steroids "because steroids often shut down the testosterone-making ability of the testicles. HCG restores their capacity to make testosterone." HCG may be used by some males in lieu of steroids, according to the source. Ramirez reportedly will not appeal the suspension.

I am sure if he was using to help with a boner he would fight it, at least for nothing else the money he is going to lose.

Roger Clemens was getting shots of B-12,
Bonds was just rubbing creme his trainer gave him, Palmeiro just took B-12...:shrug:

Maybe Manny should be the spokesperson for Viagra :mj07:

If it is true he only took a sexual enhancer the drug policy in mlb needs to be looked at...

he is not appealing:mj03:

Of all the people to be a homer. Don't you think this drug is banned for a reason? It's not that they're worried about him pooping a woodrow while up at bat. Luckily it's Baseball, 50 games is just a couple weeks, lol.

BDB you take this stuff after a roids cycle. I imagine the positive test wqas during spring training, so bottom line is he screwed up his timing.

There is ZERO chance this was some accident and the doctor messed up. Boras knows everything Manny does and players and agents know how the guidelines work, have 800 numbers to call, web sites and no on. He didnt try to get the doctor exception because he knew he wouldnt.
