Margaret Hamilton in the Wizard of Oz?! Err...so that would make Manny....Judy Garland....right? Well...there is the hair...no, stop!...I need a valium...the most appalling mental image post All Star break.

So let me get this straight...

Manny attempts assault on Youkilis: the real scandal - ain't it the truth - is that Youk was asking for it.

Manny completes assault on travel secretary: the real scandal - ain't it double the truth - is that it was leaked.

Manny's veteren Bosox team mates are pussies for being veterans, and double pussies for actually believing that they are - in fact - on a team.

And fans are triple pussies for actually believing in teamwork, sportsmanship, and setting an example.

What is it about professional sports that calls for the suspension of the executive functions?
