When Manny Ramirez returned from a 50-game steroid suspension, Los Angeles Dodgers fans cheered as though he'd returned from a terrible injury after months of rehabilitation. The hero returns.
When Aramis Ramirez returned from a terrible injury after months of rehabilitation, Chicago Cubs fans cheered just as loudly. And they did so without that tiniest twinge of guilt that no self-respecting Dodger fan could avoid - not that any would ever admit it.
When I saw Manny's press conference - the one following his absolute sham, borderline criminal, minor league stint - and he gleefully announced "I'm baaack" to an equally gleeful crowd, I felt sick. As child who'd just been caught with his hand in the cookie jar, Manny chuckled. Tee hee. I've been a pwetty bad boy. Tee hee.
No, Manny. You chose to cheat. You're a cheater. Baseball is the only thing you have, and you chose to cheat.
