After watching him in DC for a few weeks - Wily Mo is 10 feet tall and bulletproof.
If you're referring to who I think you think I'm referring to... the Sox official Web site lists him as 6'4" 230.
Just trying to proffer alternate theories...
In all seriousness, its probably a professional "wrestler."
As someone who is 5'10" 250... unless the cameras have been lying to me all these years - _________ also isn't even close to 230.
That is a badly constructed sentence, but it sounds like the HGH was reportedly delivered to two different people:
1) a "well-known" athlete in MA; and
2) an "entertainer/athlete" who was 6'5, 276
Ortiz would fit into the former category, but so would several people.
He doesn't really fit in the second category since he's not an "entertainer." That does sound more like a wrestler. Who knows.
Who cares.
no class at all.
Apparently, he's currently a Kansas City T-Bone. That seems thematically appropriate, and from the photo he looks like he's having fun. I miss having him in the majors, though.
What, did he move on from stealing jokes from other comedians, and swipe Carrot Top's arms instead?

And if there's anything else Carlos Pena could do to piss off Sox fans, it would have to be to embroil Papi in a steroid $hitstorm

Upon reflection The Cheat's correct, that is a horrible sentence. And the NY Daily News says as much...
Don't juice like my brother!

It has to be Honey Craven.
I'm no lawyer, but I'm guessing a condition of the agreement was to keep folks anonymous, and the paperwork presented as evidence listed height and weight, since aren't such things perscribed by height and weight? Like would not Mini-Me need less HGH than say, Yao Ming?
Thanks to our law firm, Dewey, Cheatem, and Howe, and to our pharmacists, the Dr. Michael F. Bell Co.
Wouldn't he need more?
It would be very funny if Barry Bonds complained about losing the 2002 series because of Glaus's roids.
F you Vlad. Now I want to claw my eyes out.
I'm pretty sure that it's Carrot Top's head superimposed on Larry Mahnken's body. It looks suspiciously like the picture of Larry in THT's beefcake issue.

The goggles, they do nothing!
This is an excellent question.
I really hope it's not David Ortiz.

Oh, come off it Larry. You wouldn't smile on the inside if "Big Papi", the hero of all things Boston, turned out to be a fraud like the rest of them? I sure would. I might make a show of harumphing, bad for the game, such a tragedy for the children, &c;&c;, but, you know, #### 'em, they're just Bostonians anyways.
I would enjoy kevin's reaction, but I would not enjoy the fact that Ortiz was using.
Single-handedly bolstering the classic sterotype of NYY fandom as type of character flaw, often found in small, unremarkable men who lack either virtue or vice, or their similarly undistinguised little spawn. Nice work, 'zop.
The ESPN "article" is very poorly written--for instance, it fails to mention when this event(s) occurred, BTW.

If wishing ill on people from Boston is a character flaw, then I'm Pol ######' Pot.
You can make Wok seem insightful by compapson at times.
Cano though, for no reason in particular, just bothers me a lot.
Make no mistake; in my spare time I can offer reams of insight. But lord, do I hate Boston. Not just the Sox- the whole package. And unfortunately I've had to spend more time up there than I'd like in recent years, so I'm both intimately familiar with the so-called "city" and have felt my hatred grow stronger by the day. Nothing would give me more pleasure than to see the little children of Boston cry; and the only two ways I could see that happening is if (1) the Boston area was forced to desegregate its towns + neighborhoods from their present state (we know that will never happen) or (2) Ortiz is revealed as a big fat cheater (a man can dream, cant he?)
This guy.
Prosecutors did not identify any customers, other than to say that one athlete was "well-known" in Massachusetts, and that one "entertainer/athlete" who received it was 6-foot-5 and 276 pounds. It was not clear whether the two descriptions were of the same person.
I would say that Derek Jeter, Mariano Rivera, and Alex Rodriguez are all athletes who are "well-known in Massachusetts". Jason Giambi, of course, would also fit that description...
Seriously. At best, listed heights/weights can be described as "grossly inaccurate".
I mean, please God, let us have something.
(Also, the phrase "well known in Massachusetts" honestly makes me believe its more likely to be someone like Pena. Flukey (?) home run season, bounced around in the minors last year, grew up in Massachusetts, played college ball here. If it were an actual Massachusetts athlete, wouldn't they out and say that, rather than attach the "well known in" stipulation?)
edit: Oh nevermind. Well known athlete in Massachusetts and athlete well known in Massachusetts are entirely different. We still have our Pena to trump for the forseeable future.
I think it's an odd way to describe even the "second line" stars of the area's pro teams, to be honest.
This is pathetic. It's also lame and unfunny. There's clearly something wrong with you.
That's not what the New York Daily News article reported:
But it did provide HGH for such uses, according to the U.S. Attorney's office. Prosecutors did not identify any customers, other than to say that one athlete was "well-known" in Massachusetts, and that one "entertainer/athlete" who received it was 6-foot-5 and 276 pounds. It was not clear whether the two descriptions were of the same person.
That's different from what the article linked from ESPN.com said.
According to The Boston Globe:
The agreement says that in 2002 and 2003, the company provided the hormone, regarded by some as a lab-generated fountain of youth, to two entertainers, an individual involved in both sports and entertainment, and to a professional athlete in Massachusetts...
The firm distributed the drug to the unidentified Massachusetts athlete "pursuant to a physician request" around Jan. 2, 2002, and Oct. 24, 2003, the agreement said.
This essentially eliminates several athletes mentioned on this thread as possibilities.
I'm sorry that you're defensive about your favorite team hailing from a racist fetid stinkhole of a city. Actually, I'm not. Cheers.
2002? Damn. I was sure it was Millar.
Awesome, more jokes that absolutely kill! And there's no racism in NYC, and it smells so nice here. What a pathetic little twit you are here with this garbage. Seriously, do you still live at home? And did you post this because you thought it was funny?
And Boston can't be racist--everybody votes Democratic.
Cheers.
There's something wrong with you, deep down inside. Seek help.
John Cena is from Massachusetts
No way that is possible. He can overcome any odds, he doens't need steroids.
'zop, I hope you contract cancer of the AIDS of the eyes.
You can't get AIDS limited to the eyes. HOwever, if he got AIDS THROUGH the eyes, that would be a first.
Tom Poti, hockey player
I'm not sure if he's on steroids, but he's got the hypogonads anyway.
I realize I'm dragging this off-topic, but I don't care.
I think your idea/perception of the Boston metro area is, um, at best out of date.
Of the largest metro areas in the US ranked in terms of racial segregation, Boston's about middle of the pack.
I'm not so sure about that.
All we'd need is some HIV-infected yellow snow, an angry Eskimo, and a fur trapper clubbing a baby seal at the wrong place and the wrong time.
HEE SEOP CHOI. He's huge for an Asian guy, he MUST be roiding.
and don't you eat that yellow snow!
That is a lot of steroids.
Couldn't you have cropped that picture a little? Carrot Top is scary enough without having to see the top half of his crotch.
I sure hope that it's not a Red Sox player. That would mean that Boston had a proven steroid user on the team, which would be almost as bad as having two proven steroid users on the team. Like that other team, the _______ York _______.

They play in the Canadian Soccer League. A sport that Americans don't care about, in CANADA. I mean c'mon.
Well-known for mocking Rob Base because he was poor. Which is an entirely different thing all-together.
I also note that when McCoy went off an extended rant about rich kids in the "Shelley Duncan Prank" thread, there was nary a comment...well, there was one or two comments, but most people let it slide. If there's a pervasive anti-money bias on this website, its y'all's problem, not mine.
I go to the Big E and I miss this thread? Dude, this is child's play. It's the jockey of the horse that I keyed in the 6th for the Pick Three at Suffolk the other day.
