There's Dumb, There's Stupid And Then There's Manny

In the history of stupid athletes, Manny Ramirez might be the Michael Jordan of stupidity. Go this site and click on the NESN Manny Being Manny Link.

I'm as tired off this jackass as anyone. But his stupidity apparently knows no bounds, so I have to comment. How can you complain about privacy in Boston, but you allow the Globe to do this spread in your house?? With your wife and kids???

Other players have complained about the privacy aspect of playing in Infidel Nation. It's not a big city in the way NYC, Chicago and LA. In those cities, athletes can go to a city or a club and not get harrassed. Not that way in Beantown. About 600,000 people live in the city, so it's not as spacious as other big cities are. People eat and sleep with this team. They have the best football team on the planet and all they can talk about is the Sux.

But knowing all of this, that they'll eat up everything on this horrible team, why would you open your home to the press? Tom Hanks is one of most accessible stars in Hollywood. But he won't allow the media inside his home because he feels that there's a line that shouldn't be crossed.

You keep hearing that Manny's not mean or malicious. He's just a space cadet. He's an idiot. He has no clue of what your obligations are to your team and your community when you make $20 million a year. People keep talking about him like he's a 10 year old child. He's 33!!! So stop talking about Manny as if you're talking about a toddler. Hold him to the same standards you hold everyone else. He's an idiot who needs to be smacked into line. Plain and simple.

It's amazing that they've given this moron all the free passes he's gotten over the years. I guess batting .320 35 HRS & 120 will get you some slack from the fans.
