Mistakes Happen, Decisions are Made!

I am sick of the same old excuse....."I made a mistake."  No you didn't, you made a decision.

Manny Ramirez is back from his 50 game suspension for flunking a drug test.  One of his coaches for the Dodgers, Larry Bowa, said on radio yesterday that Manny made a mistake and that he apologized.  That is a bunch of bull.  He knew exactly what he did.

It's just like the rash of politicians (on both sides of the isle) who claim they made a mistake in cheating on their wives.  They made a decision to carry on affairs.  When they are caught, they claim to be sorry.  WRONG, they are sorry that they got caught.

I do believe that people should get another chance....just don't claim it was a mistake.  Mistakes happen, decisions are made.  Manny made his, and he dealt with the consequences.  Let's not pretend that he is sorry that he cheated baseball.  He took the drug knowing that baseball had a drug-policy. 

Many fans are happy to have Manny back, but he's certainly not sorry for what he did.  He's sorry that he got caught.

How was this a mistake. He knew exactly what he was doing! He made too much money,did too much drinking or drugs with his friends,started a gambling ring and abused animals. This is not a mistake..If you hurt any animal there's something wrong with you,just like rapists and murderers there is no help for these people,they are sick. He is one of them. If he makes money it should go to humane societies. He got off too easy. I'll never watch the Eagles again..The Eagles need to reconsider..If I did what he did I'd be in prison for a long time..We have laws to protect us,and our animals. He's going to lie and tell us what we want to hear..and now like this whole thing never happened,we'll give him MILLIONS of DOLLARS(nice reward)This is not about a second chance. This man is still SICK and this was not a MISTAKE. Godbless those poor animals.
