Being Without Manny

Reluctantly, painfully, I finally conceded that Manny probably had to go, since he seemed to be forcing it.

That doesn't mean I'm happy, though.

The Boston Red Sox are a much more boring place without Manny. In the past, you could depend on a few goofy Manny shots to relieve the between-pitch boredom of baseball, but now you get the bland, unemotional Jason Bay, instead.

Don't get me wrong... Bay is a decent player, but he never sticks out his tongue at the camera and has yet to take a leak or make a phone call inside the Green Monster.

You won't see Jason Bay tongue-kissing Julio Lugo's ear.

Manny Ramirez scales the left field wall at Camden Yards to strangle an aging hippie who desecrated our American flag.
