Not so nice when it happens to you, is it?

I was very happy to watch the 15th inning of the Yankee/Red Sox game. It was wonderful to see A-rod, baseball's most despised player, hitting a game ending home run against the RED SOX. So much for not coming through in the clutch. I was most interested to see the reaction in the press when it was leaked that David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez took steriods. There was much whining about how could this leak have taken place, etc. And then the story died - no further word about Big Poppy and Manny. All those journalists who delighted in trashing A-rod were quite muffled about Big P and Manny, who was no model citizen to begin with. Even though I took some grim satisfaction in seeing Big P and Manny twist in the wind, it is really creepy that these so called confidential drug tests keep getting leaked.
