Big Fat Popi lashes out at reporters

After going hitless Tuesday for a second straight game to start the season, Boston Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz lashed out at reporters when reminded that his struggles last April and May would be a hot topic if he was slow at the start of this season as well.

"Good," he said, turning to face the reporters encircling him. "You guys wait 'til [expletive] happens, then you can talk [expletive]. Two [expletive] games, and already you [expletives] are going crazy.

"What's up with that, man? [Expletive]. [Expletive] 160 games left. That's a [expletive]. One of you [expletives] got to go ahead and hit for me."

Once his roids were taken from him his game fell off a cliff. If Sox want a chance at Yanks he should be benched/released.

Good luck with a 35 year old slugger reversing a two year long decline in production. At least this is the last guaranteed year of his contract.

All that matters in Red Sox nation is the Postseason and no matter how bad the last couple of seasons he has had, he always picks his game up in the post-season. Oh and by the way....he's 34.
