Even though I am a Dodger fan, I also love my hometown Sox 2nd after LA.
Manny Ramirez is a douche right now.
He needs to go. I hope the Sox get Jason Bay and get rid of this oversized 3 year old crybaby who has not hustled in years. Thank God I dont have to show my son Manny being a role model. Manny Sucks.
Dustin Pedrioa is a role model over this jerk.
This has been a bad week for Sox fans as the Yanks and Angels got marketly better and the Sox are playing like crap.
Here is the Yahoo story
Did Manny just cash his ticket to Miami with this quote?
By 'Duk
Earlier this afternoon, the Marlins were said to be holding a slim chance of pulling of a trade for Manny Ramirez.
But after reading tonight's bellyache du jour from the man himself I'd be willing to bet that motivated sellers on Miami's Star Island might be able to soon unload their property on a newly-located Ramirez.
From ESPNDeportes:
"The Red Sox don't deserve a player like me," Ramirez said. "During my years here, I've seen how they [the Red Sox] have mistreated other great players when they didn't want them to try to turn the fans against them.
"The Red Sox did the same with guys like Nomar Garciaparra and Pedro Martinez, and now they do the same with me. Their goal is to paint me as the bad guy," Ramirez added. "I love Boston fans, but the Red Sox don't deserve me. I'm not talking about money. Mental peace has no price, and I don't have peace here."
I have never understood the issues that Ramirez has with a city and fanbase that throws itself at its baseball stars, but I've always thought the Manny headache was one worth tolerating for the Red Sox. After this statement, which basically dares Boston to go ahead and trade him, I'm not so sure. If the Red Sox can work out this three-way trade that lands them Jason Bay from the Pirates, it's time to go ahead and do it.
