Dodgers’ 95-67 record changed to 74-88 due to Manny PED violation
Oops, almost. According to the Globe and Mail:
Simon Fraser University’s football team is forfeiting a pair of wins due to an eligibility violation. SFU used an ineligible student-athlete in victories over UBC on Aug. 29 and the University of Manitoba on Sept. 11, the Canada West Universities Athletic Association said in a release Wednesday. An eligibility committee ruled that the student-athlete, a transfer student from an NCAA school, was not in compliance with a CIS eligibility regulation that waives the transfer rule if the student enrols in a masters degree program.
Let’s see… Manny was not in compliance with the drug program. That should have made him ineligible to play. That should knock out 21 wins for the Dodgers through May 7.
Naaaaahhhh.... who wants something with that much teeth? Going after students for not registering in the right program by the right date? Yes, that’s what should cost a team to forfeit its wins. Ineligible students is a disgrace to the fabric of our social conscience, and I am shocked that congressional hearings are not held daily on the matter.
No one cares about PED until ESPN wants to create it as a newstory, or reporters in need of a story need to express their phony outrage for five articles at a thousand bucks an article.
