Ok, so Manny Ramirez is now 4th at his position regarding voting for the All Star Game and most of this is apparently fueled by an effort by many fans to "get out the vote" for Manny in order to protest major league baseball's drug policies. While it certainly is tempting to put a thumbtack in the eye of Bud Selig, I am having a hard time working up any enthusiasm for this cause.
If Manny had taken a more "manly" performance enhancing drug like HGH or something maybe I could get on board but Manny took a woman's fertility drug and I am just not down with that as that is just a little too "out there" for me. I think I am pretty open-minded in general but there is something in me that will not stand beside a male consumer of female fertility drugs in order to hit baseballs just a little farther. I almost think that I would have to surrender my man card to vote for him and I am not ready to do this.
With tongue firmly in cheek, I think I will have to be absent from this little movement just like the umpire in the card above.
