Taking Female Fertility Hormone Turned MLB's Manny Ramirez Into A He-She, Laughs College Sports Editor

Greg Lindberg, the sports editor for University of South Florida-St. Petersburg's student paper The Crow's Nest, thought it'd be hilarious to turn the story of ex-Dodger Manny Ramirez -- who now plays for the Tampa Bay Rays, and who was suspended for 50 games in 2009 after testing positive for a female hormone used after steroid cycles -- into one of transphobic comic relief. Evidently the paper's other editors agreed, because in "Now batting... Mandy Ramirez?," we see the entire line-up of typical college jock hilarity about men turning into women.

We've republished Lindberg's story in full below, in case it disappears from the web, but the punchline here is that by taking human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), which is a women's fertility drug that helps steroid users begin producing testosterone naturally again, Ramirez is going to one day walk on the field as "Mandy." Because, haha, he's a girl now!

One of the side effects of my HRT is that I can no longer see ANY humor in that kind of teenage trash.  The player nearly castrated himself chemically with the 'roids.  That is a major injury if you are a sports figure in mens leagues.  What'f funny about a self inflicted major injury? 

Come to think of it though, one of the greatest sports figures recently was a gelding, the race horse John Henry!!
