I'll Miss Manny



I guess everyone in Boston hates Manny now but not me. He'll always be one of my favorite players. He was the best hitter I've ever watched and the Red Sox would still be a cursed franchise with no World Series Championships since 1918 without him. So what if he attacked the traveling secretary and bitch-slapped Youk in the grill - maybe they deserved it. Everyone needs to stop acting like they're the owners of the team. Who cares how much the Red Sox paid Manny - it's not our money. The guy was a great player for the Red Sox. How many guys sign huge contracts and suck after that - not Manny. I liked Manny because he was an awesome player and entertaining to watch. I'm not even saying I'm against the trade. It's probably time for the Red Sox and Manny to part ways - but let's not forget what Manny did here in Boston. You can choose to remember the crap the media throws out there about Manny or you can remember what Manny did on the field. I'm an "on the field" guy. Above all else he had the best quote ever right after they won the World Series in 2004: "It was our destination". What's not to love? Loosen up and relax people.

Stop it... That guy is a piece of shit. Your an on the field guy? Wasnt taking him 5.8 seconds to get to first base during Lackeys no hitter done on the field? What about watching 3 pitches in the ninth against Mariano in a one run game because he was pissed he had to pinch hit? Listen, no one doubts his talent the guy made 20 million a year to hit a baseball and he couldnt do it without bitching yearly. Let the guy go to the Dodgers and play infront of 15 thousand fans who dont give a shit. You will love Jason Bay. He plays the game right and he produces. Manny Ramirez is a selfish piece of shit

Stop it... I hope your joking. This guy is a piece of shit. Your an "on the field guy" wasnt taking him 5.8 seconds to get to first base during Lackeys no hitter on the field? What about when he sat there watched 3 pitches from Mariano because he was pissed the made him pinch hit? Listen, no one doubts his talent but this guy cares about nobody but himeself. Let him go to the Dodgers and play infront of 15 thousand people who dont give a shit. You will like Jason Bay he is a guy who plays the game right and he produces. Manny just hurt the franchise that has backed him in many situations that they wouldnt have for anybody else and paid him 160 million dollars over the last 8 years. That guys is a piece of shit.
