Manny is a disgrace to the game of baseball.

I've been a Manny supporter this whole time.......sorry, not on this one though....time to go, just going to be hard to replace him in that line-up...if he goes you will see others around him in the line-up suffer. It's more than just replacing Manny...Ortiz needs his protection, especially with Millar hitting behind him. 
We don't need this crap going on right now. |

Manny is Manny, he's is the most productive force on our offense, if he wants a day off vs. the Devil Rays, have at it, when you're the best you get fringe benifits.
He isn't the whole team though.
On the flip side - Be happy
We won yesterday,
Renteria's base running after his walk was picture perfect,
Mirabelli stole a base,
Mueller has a 9 game hitting streak,
Cora banged a homer,
Wakefield was lights out,
Schilling got a win.
Clement went home with the team
Oh yeah,
We're in 1st place.

I usually don't have a problem w/ a day off but Nixon went down w/ an injury the day before and they needed him in the line-up. Yesterday's starting Line-up was ugly....I am glad they got the win though.
I'm w/ ya on all the other points... |

A lot of kids look up to Manny and want to be just like him. Here's a guy that was blessed w/ an incredible talent and is making an un-godly amount of money and he can't show up for work on an "Off" day because his team needs him. What kind of message does that send?
There isn't a guy on this board who probably hasn't been called in at the last minute to do something for their company and had to work on the weekend or on a holiday. But that seems to be something Manny is exempt from. And I'm pretty sure that a lot of guys don't get 5 MONTHS of vacation a year either.
I think Baseball needs more Cal Ripkens and Tony Gwynns instead of a bunch Of Manny's and Pedros's (nothing racial there, I'm talking attitude). |

This is a real life lesson. Life isn't fair.
I also don't think an 11 year old should be watching South Park or allowed on this site.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
