Sammy Sosa (official thread)

and it didn't take long, but Pedro Martinez is already making excuses for him...

Pedro Martinez, who is currently a free agent working out in the Dominican Republic, played against Sosa for many years.

"This news would make me feel terrible if it is proven that Sammy tested positive," Martinez told The Associated Press. "This is a problem of all of baseball, not just Dominican baseball. But in reality, this is a problem of education that has to be attacked."
problem of education? Horse-fucking-shit. Sosa knew EXACTLY what he was doing as did McGwire and as did ARoid and Bonds and all the rest of them. Problem of education my ass, more like problem of honor and class.

Looks like those paragons of virtue - the US House of Representatives - will look into whether Sosa's testimony to them was misleading. If only they would be so concerned with policing the truthfulness of their own words.

I guess I don't understand if the New York Times can get the name of a fear players who tested positive why can't they print the entire list of 104 or did I miss something.

He is worse. Not only is this fucking fuck a juicer, but he's using a corked bat too? Fuck him.

But, even forgiving all that, and even if he did play for the Yankees.. I would hate the son of a bitch just as much. Why? Because my reasons are completely irrational.

Fuck
Sammy
Fucking
Sosa.

Fuck him until he can be fucked no more.

Where have our heroes gone? :(

Not directing this necessarily at you Taos, just that your post struck a nerve that has bothered me for many years, more of a society thing. Looking to a group of professional athletes for "heroes" is exactly why this steroid era has blossomed, IMO.

If one needs to look for heroes, first look around one's immediate surroundings for the true day-to-day heroes, the unsung heroes. Good parents are heroes daily, a spouse who picks up more of the day-to-day runnings of the household when their spouse is going through a rough physical patch is a true hero. The firefighter or policeman who simply does his/her job daily is a hero. The neighbor who helps out with transportation of one's kids in a pinch is a true hero. Anyone during any era, who has voluntarily or unvoluntarily served their country is a true hero. I could go on and on about how each of us is surrounded by heroes daily, yet they go unnoticed because we too often look to the entertainment industry for "heroes".

Now when one looks to a group like professional baseball players as being the supplier of "heroes", said group of baseball players may feel somewhat empowered to abuse stuff like steroids. Why wouldn't they as they are being put on a pedestal by the media for others in society to worship, idolize, and hence make heroes out of.

Screw that shit!

My definition of what a hero is, of someone to admire and look up to, goes well beyond their worth on the playing field. One can find "heroes" in the sporting world. Recently I have used Brian Robiskie as an example for my kids, not simply because of his success on the playing field, but also because of his success off the field, in the classroom.

Sorry to carry on about this, but this has been fermenting in me for at least 20 years. Now that I vented a little bit, I can go back to my classroom and focus some folks on the importance of polar coordinates.
