Big Papi has a bridge he'd like to sell you...

So David "Big Papi" Ortiz holds a press conference Saturday to claim he never did steroids. I don't believe him as far as I could throw him. And with my bad back, I shouldn't be throwing anyone.

David Ortiz says he only took supplements and vitamins. Didn't Palmero blame his positive test on a Vitamin B-12 injection? Additionally, all the over the counter supplements are basically amino acids and I learned in high school that amino acids become protein, which become muscle mass, which become home runs.

From Wikipedia:
Anabolic steroids, or anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS), are a class of steroid hormones related to the hormone testosterone. They increase protein synthesis within cells, which results in the buildup of cellular tissue (anabolism), especially in muscles.

So Big Papi, who said on the record that steroid users should get a one-year ban hasn't missed a game since it became known that he was a steroid user. He isn't giving back any money. And he sure as all hell isn't giving back any of his World Series rings.

And now the Red Sawks are taking a Mets-like dive in the standings. Karma's a bitch, Papi. A-Rod at least came (kind of) clean and took a month off. How's that working for him?

Is that a compliment from Loki? Dude you usually throw compliments around like manhole covers.

I was talking about the Yankee game. The post was good though. Anything is better than the passionate MJ stories that Gman puts out where he tries to insult me for being young.

Yanks were impressive today. I can't believe Damon and Tex have more back-to-back HRs than Mantle and Maris.

But as a Mets fan with $100 on the Titans tonight, I paid more attention to the preseason NFL game.
