This is it? This is the best “Manny being Manny” event, the latest “Manny moment,” the biggest “controversy” the Boston media can come up with? Unbelievable. “Sports” radio WEEI has spent two days talking about Manny selling a grill on eBay. This morning, John Dennis is researching the eBay rules to see if Manny violated any policy and should be punished. Why?
All this guy has done is hit home runs and drive in base runners for the Boston Red Sox. In a world where you can’t swing a dead cat in any professional sports venue without hitting a player who is either using steroids, capping people outside bars or smacking their wife around, why does anybody care about Manny selling a friggin‘ grill?
And people wonder why he wants to be traded…
