I’m going to have a MANNY RAMIREZ post on a weekly basis here at DP dot com until the season ends. Let’s see which teams really took advantage of the trading deadline and became better ballclubs.
In only his second game in L.A., RAMIREZ ignited the Dodgers to a 4-2 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks by hitting a two run blast and scoring a run off a JEFF KENT single.
The guy he was traded for had a game winning hit Friday. Full disclosure Dallas.
Repost from the other thread.
I agree Boston is not smelling good here either. Leaking the thing with the traveling secretary is low. But I disagree that they owe him a four year deal. They paid him for a ton for 8 years and he produced well for them and helped them win two WS. That was the contract, Boras and Manny now can’t change that. Manny agreed to those options because they benefited him in 2000. A man stands by his prior commitments even when they are disadvantageous to him today.
I am waiting until October, when we see Manny Ramirez in Staples Center rooting for OUR LAKERS.
nuff sed
JP,
You can have a Jason Bay watch if you would like to. I don’t believe for a second that Jason Bay will ever be the player that Manny is. With that said, the complementary players on the Red Sox > then the bums on the Dodgers. Lets just let the season play itself out and see who is left standing in October.
can’t wait til baseball season is over… can’t wait for football!
Foot what? This is a year of basketball.
August 24th we reclaim the gold.
Mo,
Make sure you stay tuned and get down with the DP Dot Com football pool. Winner gets a free pair of kicks.
Nerditry,
I am posting an eBay auction for the official Kobe Bryant Beijing Olympics jersey by Nike. I am including a swatch of some semen and fecal matter from the alleged rape in Colorado.
[ll] of course to the fact that the semen and fecal matter is actually from the anal sex that C.S. let me get last nite.
It’s just Manny being Manny….
The US needs to take this gold crown down and get embarrassed like 04.
(As much as is pains me to say this based on my inability to play basketball in any competitive form…) Anything less then Gold in Black America’s favorite past time (prah’lee 100% untrue, yet true) is a disappointment.
Don’t get me wrong, the rest of the world is finally stepping they game up, and with mediocre NBA players heading to Europe to be stars in these wack Euro leagues…
And the exchange rate between U.S. dollars and Euros…
Shit, I know I’d make it rain and help FC Barcelona be .500 as well as slay as many Euro chicks as possible.
And that is exactly why I was not blessed with exceptional athletic talent, because I know I would wild out harder then ADAM JONES.
Make them Euro’s raiiiin!
USA hoops > Whoever else wants some in Beijing.
You know Dallas, I was drunk off Long Island’s and pitchers of Lager at a punk wedding on Saturday night, grinding on some co-eds to some monstrosity by Sean Paul and thought, “I should do a Manny watch on my blog now that he’s on my squad full time.”
Then I come on here today…you bastard!
I was gonna do a Manny Watch on MY blog but I was so pissed off with some Boston sportswiters, sports fans (?) and the whole situation overwhelmed me so much that I put posting on the whole situation off until today.
One.
