Why did it come to this?
August 2, 2008

    I remember when Manny came to Boston. I had no idea who he was and I had my doubts. Then he hit the first pitch to him straight out of the park, and I was a fan. I soon read all I could on him and looked forward to games he was playing. I wasn't a fan of the dreads but hey, the man was good and that forgives a lot. I was known for saying "Manny being Manny" and for unashamedly defending him.            I was a fan.

    Seeing him in that Dodgers' uniform and playing for Torre with that traitor Garciapara makes me sad. I wish Manny all the best. From what I have read he didn't want to leave in the end. Than why did it take you 5.75 seconds to run to first base?

    We had some good times... I have homer #438 mounted on my TV and maybe one day I'll get it signed.                       Good Luck Manny....

Manny was here for almost 8 years. Sometimes, when reality comes crashing down on you, it's too late. As I've said b4, this may have been the lesson in humilty that I think Manny needed. Grass may have looked greener 'ovah dere' but it never is. Now, I think even Manny knows that..glad he's got some love over there.

Um, yeah, Nomar is on the DL so they probably won't be playing together much.

Nomar is not a traitor, wasn't he traded as well? Manny wanted out, and changed his mind 1,500 times about where he wanted to be...the Sox called his latest "bluff" and I hope that he is happy in the situation that he created.

"traidED" - V, (past tense). somone who gets 'moved' to another team by the mangmnt. "traitOR" - N. (past tense). the player that was 'moved'. (almost makes sense, doesnt it)
