        <body>also the media has ignored the embarrassing possibility manny may have ED. just like the cyclist who was banned for taking hair growth hormones because he was bald. 

the media needs to get over the whole roids issue. they have been around since the 1940s, they are going anywhere.</body>

        <body>Bring back Manny!!! HCG is a hormone and not a steroid. I took HCG for a diet and lost 41lbs in 40 days. The HCG diet has been around sinse 1950. You can get HCG from the internet, the government is making a big deal from nothing as usual.</body>

&lt;div&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;photo&quot; title=&quot;Manny&quot; src=&quot;http://img.fannation.com/upload/si_blog_post_images/37841/tx_manny4.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Manny&quot; width=&quot;350&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Manny Ramirez will return to the Dodgers on Friday.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;AP&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;javascript:CNN_DPAudio('http://ht.cdn.turner.com/si/danpatrick/audio/2009/07/02/DP-Dylan_Hernandez-07-02-09_Interview.mp3')&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i.cdn.turner.com/si/.element/img/4.0/sect/danpatrick/listen_segment_148x16.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;148&quot; height=&quot;16&quot; /&gt; &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;Los Angeles Times&lt;/em&gt; Dodgers writer &lt;strong&gt;Dylan Hernandez&lt;/strong&gt; joined the show to discuss Manny's return in San Diego on Friday.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;-- Hernandez says that Dodgers fans have no reservations about Manny coming back. If there's anything that bothers them, it's &lt;strong&gt;Juan Pierre&lt;/strong&gt; losing playing time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hernandez thinks that when Manny comes back to L.A., he'll get a very warm perception. Fans love the Manny character and the fact you never know what he'll do.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;-- Hernandez said that the Dodgers have become more of a small ball team, but they won't have any real problem adjusting to having a big bat in there. In fact, hitters in the middle of the lineup around Manny will see better pitches.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;-- Hernandez said that Manny will not publicly comment on the suspension very much. He won't address it unless more revelations come out. Hernandez said that Manny has nothing to gain from speaking.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hernandez said that the federal investigation of Manny's suppliers is the perfect excuse for Manny to avoid questions from the media.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</body>
