Blog on Dodgers

This past week the MLB has decided to take over the Los Angelos Dodgers. Ever since the owner's divoce with his wife afte 30 years of marriage the owner is quite distraught. He is so out of it that the MLB is going to take over all aspects of the Dodgers organization. It is a day to day basis on the takeover because of the hope that one day the owner will be able to go back to work without problems like this happening again.

To me this is all out dumb in every way. This is a baseball organization and because of one divorce the entire team is suffering? Owner needs to step up and take one for the team because the team should be like family to the owner but he is beig selfish. I know this must be a terrible time for him but he needs to get back on the horse and do his job for not only the team but the entire organization and fans he is letting down.

blog on pacers

The Indiana Pacers last week got their first playoff birth in a while. After winning the game that finally decided their seed in the playoffs the Pacers will be facing off with the number one seed Chicago Bulls in the NBA's first round of the playoffs. The players are extremely excited to finally be able to represent their city again and give the Pacers back their prowess.

To me this is a great thing. I miss watching the Pacers with Reggie go out and win clutch games. I really hope this is a positive step in another great franchise the Pacers are beginning to build. http://www.nba.com/pacers/index_main.html

Manny Ramirez

After getting in trouble once again for using illegal substances Manny Ramirez took the easy way out now. After testing positive again the league suspended him for 100 games. Instead of taking the suspension, Ramirez decided to retire early. People are very skeptic about the decision he made because they  believed he would be in the hall of fame once he retired but this move may have kept him out of there.

I believe what he did was stupid. Not only with the steroid issue but retiring  because he cannot face the consequences of taking steroids. He is a good athlete either way but he went down the wrong road and his stretch of luck has finally run out. I believe he should not be in the hall of fame or even considered because this is at least the second time Manny has been in trouble with banned substances.http://bleacherreport.com/articles/660387-manny-ramirez-retires-after-great-career-sad-ending
