Sports Thread #1 For 3/17/10: Ron Washington Tests Positive For Cocaine
One of the best managers in all of baseball takes blame in a special report from Sports Illustrated : "I did make a mistake and I regret that I did it," Washington told SI.com by phone from Surprise, Ariz., on Tuesday night. "I am really embarrassed and I am really sorry." For me, since this is the first time he did it and got the counseling and all, it's not that much of a big deal. Only the headlines of him doing cocaine make this story so newsworthy that it's even trending on Twitter . It's over and done, and Washington can go back into thinking about how he can lead the Rangers to their first postseason in a long long time.
