The Ordeal of Manny’s Many Faces
WCBias | West Coast Bias Sports Blog | West Coast Sports News by West Coast Sports Fans, Covering Los Angeles Lakers, Dodgers and All Things West Coast —
So Manny Ramirez is set to return Friday after his suspension for using female fertility drugs - they don’t allow that kind of stuff in California any more. It’ll be interesting to see what kind or reception he gets around the Majors, from opposing players, fans, media, etc. But that’s not what I’m most interested in watching, because, well, we’ve been through with dozens of players who used performance enhancers and will see it probably a hundred other times in our lives. I’ve said it before and will say it again, until they rid the game of HGH, and at least test for it, you can’t point the finger at just Manny - because I guarantee a majority of the players in the major American ...

... could be the result of a curse. I'm not quite sure how going on a reality show could curse a team; maybe reality shows can only be broadcast on television if producers desecrate an Indian burial ground first.
But there's more exciting Phillies bullpen news, and I'll cover this one here since I think there's a 0% chance a show on a network owned by Major League Baseball will: A fan at a Tampa Rays game says J.C. Romero attacked him for making a steroids comment; Romero could face battery charges in St. Petersburg.
It is a minor incident, of course. St. ...
Now Philadelphia Athletes Are Getting A Reputation To Match Their Fans
Sports Radio Interviews —
I stress the word reputation because the stigma for Philadelphia fans is a bit unfair. There are unruly fans in every stadium and arena around the country. Even in Utah! When I went to an Eagles game in San Francisco in 1995, the Eagles got off to a 14-0 lead and me and my buddy where cheering like crazy. Next thing I know I’m getting pelted in the back of the head by an aluminum foil ball. I turn around to confront the guy that threw it and it’s a Rastafarian looking dude with no legs in the wheelchair section. Cowardly by the Bob Marley wannabe, but needless to say I wasn’t about to throw down with a paraplegic. So you see, Philadelphia didn’t ...
