I think Manny will eventually be a handfull for any club who signs him.All thats required is the right chain of events or event.
I loved Manny when he played for the Sox.On a personal level,as a fan,I was so disapointed when he left the team the way he did.While I wish no ill will towards him,I hope he stands as an example to young fans and players that you have a responsibility to your employer to be professional at ALL times on the job and that includes when and how you leave.
I am a lifelong Red Sox fan but Derek Jeter is one of my favorite players.He and a handfull of others represent all that is good with the game.Unless he goes through some Scrooge type transformation as a major league ball player,I can't bear the thought of him going to Cooperstown.
