David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez

Yesterday, the New York Times reported that both Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz tested positive for peformance inhancing drugs in 2003. A wave of shock has gone through Red Sox Nation, as their beloved " Big Papi" tested positive for Peformance inhancing drugs. Earlier this year in spring training, Papi said that players that test positive should be banned for a year. Now, back in 2003, the certain drug that ortiz tested positive for may not have been banned. If it was, give him a taste of his own medicine and suspend him for one season. Ortiz has disapointed me, his fans, the Boston Red Sox, and his family. He was once a role-model to society, and now he is just another inconvience for Bud Selig.
Manny has already been linked to steroids and or performance enhancing drugs, as he tested positive during spring training this year. In 2004, Manny won the World Series MVP, as the Red Sox won there first World Series Championship in 86 years. Forever, this World Series victory may be tainted.
