The article states that he copped to it, offered to resign, went through treatment, and has basically tried to rectify his "wrong" in whatever manner asked of him and then some (asking the league to continue to test him regulalrly). He did pretty much what would have been asked of anybody in most professions caught one time with cocaine in their system, and more. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Runaway Jim Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I like that he didn't get fired, but I wouldn't have been surprised if he did. I hope he doesn't fuck up again. Link to post Share on other sites

bleedorange Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 As a Rangers fan, all I can say is, "who cares?" So the manager snorted cocaine. There are plenty worse things in this world than recreational drug use. Plus, he handled it the best way he could have. Link to post Share on other sites
bobbob1313 Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 He reminds me of a bigger, more athletic version of Cliff Floyd. Yeah, that swing set up is a lot like him. He hits everything hard, and he is just gigantic. He was standing next to the Marlins 1B, a guy who is pretty big himself, and he just dwarfed him. Link to post Share on other sites
