UP FRONT: I like Manny Ramirez. I think he works hard to be the best hitter he can. Does he not run out grounders from time to time? Yes. Does he take leaks inside the Green Monster during pitching changes? Yes. Are those reasons not to sign Manny, IMO? No. However I think ... ... there is no way Theo and company pick up Manny's option year(s). Here are my reasons: 1. Manny being MannyAlthough personally I think Manny is harmless and I like him in Boston, he is supposed to be a professional. Theo, Larry, and the owners have built a classy organization and I think Manny's…

You've got to be happy for Paul Pierce. He was the modern day Archie Manning of the NBA: a great individual player surrrounded by poor talent for years. To see him reach the finals last night was special.Celtics-Lakers? Are you kidding me? The World Series, the Bling Dynasty (yeah, the Pats), and now the NBA Finals. I sure hope the Boston fans are appreciating this embarrassment of riches. Enjoy it while it lasts. I know I am!

The 10th Commandment from God is: "Thou Shalt Not Covet". He gave it to us for good reason. When the grass is greener on the other side of the fence people get jealous. Jealousy brings forth ugly attitudes in people. Consider the vitriolic posts when anything Patriots is posted. Regardless of the topic people spew venom. There's onre reason for it: jealously. People are just plain jealous of the Pats' success -- especially those from NY. In the case of Spygate it was the coach who semi-broke a rule that did not determine the outcome of a single game. Not a single player…

I believe that Boller will reamain at QB until Flacco can be started. Troy Smith has a lot of red flags, primarily at height, size, and inexperience.

Dan, take this for whatever you will (a grain of salt, I know) coming from someone you would consider an "elitist liberal" who works in public education. If you ever did want one of us unpatriotic commie, public educators, who will certainly vote for the guy who "is muslim" and "doesn't pledge to the flag", etc., etc. to take you seriously here and attempt to have a healthy debate about conservatives and liberals, having an image of Archie Bunker posted doesn't help the cause. LOL By the way, to insinuate that Bush has done things for minorities is my favorite piece of misinformation for July (check out where Rice came from and within what industry, please). Honestly though, please take this comment more as comedy from me (I can agree to disagree with anyone) instead of the usual attack style we see when "liberals and conservatives" face off.
