Breaking news on the CNNSI front page...


New York Times: David Ortiz, Manny Ramirez tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs in 2003




Well... if that is true.. then there isn't a soul in baseball I trust... not freaking one of them.

Saw a lot of people talk about this on twitter. I still can't imagine that the MLB takes such a loose approach to steroid use. I mean, this isn't only a problem in the MLB, but it'll have a ripple effect which will eventually influence high school players as well. If you can take steroids to make yourself better, why not do it? The health risks are 'minimal'.

I don't know what makes Ortiz so special to you, but I asume that he has a great character to go with his big hitting ability. Truly a shame.

First is his body type.. doesn't fit the profile.

Second is his personality.. seemed so honest and likable.

Third.. I think it is safer to assume all players are guilty until the entire list of names is revealed.. there seems to be no way to "pick them out" at this point..

The game has been tainted to the point that nothing can be trusted or no one.

Is this really vindication for a Yankees fan? Seems to me like A-rod still did roids, along with the others whose names have come out.

I personally remember a certain League Championship series that 2004 year, and who knew we were playing 2 steroid users? Both Ortiz and Ramirez have been prooven for steroids, both! Ha!

So you are keeping a tally of those guilty... hmmm..

Clemens
Pettite
A-Rod
Giambi

Regardless.. it doesn't change the fact the you really can't be sure of any player and if he was clean or not.

Yeah, but if you look at his stats, it very much points to it. Never had more than 20 homers before playing with Boston, then suddenly 41, 47, 54.

Listening to Cowherd the other day, he brought up a great point about the Mitchell Report. Most of the names came from a Mets trainer and a Yankees trainer, which translates into most of these names being East Coast guys. Which could make this list much less than complete, which many people thought anyway.

Not surprised one bit at all. Seems like everyone in baseball is on 'roids. Hopefully Pujols stays clean.

Completely off topic, it is so confusing having a go.pack.go and a gopackgo on the same forum. But you both make excellent contributions to this site, so I can't complain. :magnifyglass:

Zero2Cool (1h) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?
packerfanoutwest (8h) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.
Zero2Cool (8h) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat
wpr (9h) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.
wpr (9h) : now 3
Zero2Cool (10h) : Who? What?
beast (18h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?
Martha Careful (23h) : meh
Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026
Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : It's so awesome.
Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : new site fan shout post fast
wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.
wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4
wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4
Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!
dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am
wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days
beast (18-Apr) : 6 days
wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
