Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs in 2003, lawyers with knowledge of the results told The New York Times.

 

The two were key members of the Boston Red Sox World Series teams in 2004 and 2007.

I know everyone (especially the Yankee fans) are gonna come out and say "I KNEW ITTTTTTTTT, I ROOOOOOOOOL" but I'll say that I am surprised Ortiz tested positive. I always thought the best of him.

 

So from the list of 104, we've got A-Rod, Sosa, Manny and Ortiz. 100 to go

[Cocos Disciples]

Yeah...

[yankeessuck013]

Cue the "omggg cheatersssss!!11!!!, we want 2004 back, tainted titles!!11!!!" crowd

 

*enter gom and jacko, etc*

[Rdsxmbnt]

To be honest Diane, I'm surprised

[redsox33]

I'm very surprised at Ortiz.

[Cocos Disciples]

I'm not at all.

[redsox33]

I'm not at all.

 

Really?

I never thought he was.

[BSN07]

Not surprised at all.

[BSN07]

Really?

I never thought he was.

 

Your in denial. No one should be a surprised at any name that comes out at this point in time.

 

We all just need to move on....

 

This is also why I didn't hammer the Yankee fans about their guys. The Red Sox were bound to get hit by this in some way or another at some point.

The only people that would surprise me are Derek Jeter and Albert Pujols.

 

I was surprised by A-Rod. But Papi's decline makes sense. Still love him.

[redsox33]

What do you guys think about Pujols?

[Dipre]

What do you guys think about Pujols?

 

Clean.

[BSN07]

What do you guys think about Pujols?

 

 

50/50

 

 

But I'll believe him for the time being.

[redsox33]

50/50

 

 

But I'll believe him for the time being.

 

I'm still not sure about him.

[Soxfan1]

Here we go...

 

Boo Papi tonight please.

[Dipre]

Here we go...

 

Boo Papi tonight please.

 

What the f*** are you talking about?

[BSN07]

I'm still not sure about him.

 

I'm not sure about anyone. I would be surprised about Jeter though.

[BSN07]

Here we go...

 

Boo Papi tonight please.

 

Your joking right? Or are you one of the Sox fans that didn't think anyone on the team was using? And now your mad because you got burned...

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Hey remember last winter when I was suspicious of Ortiz and everyone was telling me that he's 100% natural and his growth was just him getting fatter and his increased performance was foreshadowed by his Twins performance?

 

Finger to you guys.

[redsox33]

I'm not sure about anyone. I would be surprised about Jeter though.

 

Obviously like contact hitters would surprise me but you never know.

[yankeessuck013]

In other suprising news, the sky is blue and Megan Fox is hot.

[a700hitter]

What do you guys think about Pujols?

I'd be surprised if any Dominican player was using. They all seem to train at the same place and under the supervision of the same trainer who got nailed for Roid distribution.

[yankeessuck013]

Here we go...

 

Boo Papi tonight please.

 

Is this a joke?

 

We need to support him more than ever, did Yankee fans boo Arod?

[redsox33]

Why did that guy say boo papi tonight??

[BSN07]

Why did that guy say boo papi tonight??

 

He's either kidding or being a tool.

[BSN07]

There was visual and statistical evidence to warrant some suspicion about Ortiz. If you declared him to be 100% clean, your just very naive.

 

 

 

All in all, it doesn't bother me really. Lots of people were using for various reasons. I again state, give me $50M and I would probably have done it too. And so would have many of you. So let's not cast too many stones in this glass house.

I just wish I remembered the thread...

[Looch Ness Monster]

I wouldn't boo him but I'll never give him a standing ovation.

[Gom]

It was so obvious, it's not even news. Only the most blatantly retarded person ever believed that Ortiz was clean.
