Sad to say but i knew this would come out eventually. I dont see how A-Fraud gets no penalty but Manny gets a 50 game suspension. I'm starting to lose faith in Pro sports. Next LeBron or Dwight or someone in the NBA will get caught and i'll stop watching sports period. I knew Manny was part of the whole Steriod Era but i was hoping he left that behind knowing most people got caught... The real sad story is the guys who played "clean" thru all this and were out performed.

Lebron and Dwight were both physical specimens coming out of highschool, I highly doubt they are using performing enhancing drugs.
This is unfortunate though, from what I heard its not even a performing enhancer... Manny got screwed.

wow, what a surprise.. This coming after that record 13 wins in row. What a blow to the club. Manny is a bonehead and should have known better. I hope this doesn't hurt the dodgers mentality. Go Dodgers!

arod didn't get suspended because his positive test was a few years ago, and the league agreed not to punish those who tested positive, and the results were supposed to be kept confidential but arod's got leaked
