    Looking for Help (Josh Hamilton)

    Not sure if this is the best place to put this, but I know it's where I'll get the quickest respone. I have to do a research project on drug/use and absuse. Does anybody have a really good link to a place that details Hamilton's story?

    Thanks.

    It makes me feel like we're cheating if we give you the link, since it's a research project.

    Today's Enquirer has the interesting backstory to how he became a Red.

    Check cincinnati.com.

    It's so hard to read Hamilton articles now and not completely miss him being on the Reds.

    Reading his stat line is even more painful...
    "In our sundown perambulations of late, through the outer parts of Brooklyn, we have observed several parties of youngsters playing 'base', a certain game of ball. Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our close rooms, the game of ball is glorious"

    Countdown until someone reminds you he's a crackhead...

    (BTW, I agree. I love to see guys try to get their lives in order. And in this case, I especially like to see him hit a baseball. He's good)
