    ...I found it humorous that he claimed that the secret to his success as a hitter was not through PEDs, but instead, he says he made himself into what he is through hard work, watching film and because of his intelligence and mental preparation.
    ...anyone else find it odd that he somehow did not use the very same approach to also make himself into a great fielding 1Bman?... he was a butcher with the glove.

    Well, the reassuring thing to me is that the other piece of that dynamic duo he had, Manny, only started taking PEDs after he left Boston. Had he been caught in Boston I might have had my doubts about Papi. Seriously, who buys what this whiny punk says? Go smash a clubhouse phone, complain to an official scorer, tell us how the league is ruining it for you batters, etc. When does this guy start doing anything with class?

    It's shamefully an early campaign for the HOF.

    Tired of his self appraisal. He believes he's
    a HOF! Yeah. In the world of PEDs. Players
    who are so full of themselves (literal and
    anatomical) spew BS just to appear favorable;
    he has this need to be liked. Unfortunately,
    the more he talks, the more he is a pitiful
    person.

    When all else fails, deny, deny, deny. And if that doesn't work, deny some more.

    Honestly I thought Manny was juicing long before he left Boston?

    Shrek, is a bigger POS, than A-Roid at times, the most despised ass wipe, gloated, arrogant fk, who doesn't deserve to even buy a ticket to see those Hallowed Halls, not even as a tourist, its way too beyond his child like mentality.......

    ^ lol, if referring to my post I was being sarcastic. Both of those clowns were clearly juicing up in the Boston clubhouse. Somebody should chart Papi's increasing hat size over the years. He's an absolute fraud.

    ...as far as DHs in the HOF, IMO, Edgar Martinez should get the nod before Ortiz.

    OH Yeah, Edgar WAS the Greatest DH IMO, and Statistically too, needless to say Edgar was the one and only batter you wanted to see (or did not as the opposing team, ala that fkd up 95 ALDS game - 5)....coming up to bat, in a pinch situation, with the wining or tying run on base, RISP. Shrek, fk him, Edgar had a much better DH Career.....!
