Interesting story today developing around Texas Rangers Manager Ron Washington. Washington, a 57 year old baseball lifer has admitted that he used cocaine during the 2009 season. While we realize the Rangers weren't very good and there is a lot of stress involved with the job, what he did is probably not very good.
Washington made a statement today, NBCDFW.com has it...RIGHT HERE

He was tested and showed a positive result sometime shortly after the 2009 All-Star break and hasn't tested positive since. He apparently brought the results to the Rangers and to Major League Baseball. His apology has been accepted though he will continue to be subjected to random testing. It remains to be seen if there will be any punishment from the league.
