how can the world roast people like Manny Ramirez and Pacman Jones - but neglect to remember the Brett Myers isn't exactly the classiest dude either:
On June 23, 2006, Myers was arrested and charged with assault after punching his wife Kim Myers on a downtown Boston street, after an argument. The Phillies received criticism from some media members and women's organizations for not benching Myers. Myers took a short leave of absence from the team. During a pre-trial hearing on October 5, 2006, Kim Myers indicated that she did not want her husband prosecuted, and despite the prosecutor's insistence of filing charges, the case was dismissed. The couple has been in marriage counseling since the arrest.
