“And then there was one…” by Norm Brooks

The cream rises to the top.

When I woke up this morning, I knew it was going to be a glorious day. The dumpster I slept next to was filled with a recyclable goods ripe for the picking, the sun was shining, and I’d snuck into my buddy Greg’s basement last night to set my lineup because the games started at noon today.

But when I heard that Manny Ramirez had tested positve for PED’s, that’s when I knew that today was special. Yesterday there were only two power hitting righties that had not been touched by the steroid scandal. Today, Albert Pujols stands alone, as the only pure player in the sport.

Forget about A-Rod, Manny, and McGuire. Unless you’ve been a Pujols fan for the past 9 years you’ve been living a lie. So while I may be eating discarded chinese food that I found on a park bench for dinner tonight, at least I can sleep easy knowing that my boy Albert may finally get the respect he deserves.
