Caught a bunch of suspects who are apparently talking they were paid to hit Ortiz but we still haven’t heard a word who paid for the hit and why?

Pro baseball players have such bad luck being in DR in general, I'm surprised he even decided to go:

Back in 1987 at the tender age of ‘noine’ I went to DR for about a week.

No issues.

Bahamas is a poor country too, get away from the Atlantis resort area and it's still fine, warm happy locals proud of their country no matter the economics


Been there plenty of times, Massachusetts has a big population, all want a 1 way ticket here

DR good for cheap whores and all you can drink places, risk of stds and getting robbed isn't my idea of a holiday weekend

Rather go to Barcelona, for the price of 763M wheels $3k you could go, find some cinnamon tanned blondes that think my Boston/American accent interesting

But @ 36 and Mrs. Miller following those days are behind me, now it's family beach weekends in Maine
