I was going to delete the above post, but I have indicated to the mods exactly my feelings and intentions. I am posting this because the stories I am hearing are not yet validated and thus may only be rumors.

My thought process is how we ignore many who deserve our sympathy and kindness and "love and respect" someone for having money and hitting a baseball. THATS IT...ONLY THAT.

Not meant to disparage Ortiz at all. Just reading I felt compelled because of other headlines from that country to point out and ask how he deserves that kind of attention over weak and innocents.

Hoping this stays but if not, the mods know what I mean and my intent. Others who replied totally tried to make it something it is not.
