maybe this was news 4 years ago. All that I care is that he hits his 40+ homers and knocks in his 130+ RBIs.
at least his grandmother didn't die (again).
i agree this is old news.and i don't think there is much they can do about it anyway .if they could trade him for 95 cents on the dollar fine but it doesn't seem other teams were willing to go for it.the sox are just going to have to live with Manny's many quirks and his 35 plus hr and 130 rbi another two years.maybe this was news 4 years ago.

Today it is being reported that he is attending an auto auction in Atlantic City, does this change anyone's mind??
...As long as he shows up in shape and ready to play why would anyone give a crap if hes late?...
You feel that way because the Sox have worked hard to minimize the damage Manny's attitude does, not because his attitude has done no damage. Keep in mind that no matter what time he was asked to show up, a reason to be late would pop up.
Thats not why I feel that way at all. If the team is really so distraught that Manny will be two days late to practice then they need to get over it and realize how insignificant an issue it is. And why hasn't anyone come out to say they dissaprove of Manny being late? Varitek and Lowell said that being late to ST isn't a huge deal, but they both implied the car show would have been. So if they were willing to imply that they don't like the car show but not him arriving late than its not an issue.You feel that way because the Sox have worked hard to minimize the damage Manny's attitude does, not because his attitude has done no damage.

Manny is a great hitter. He could be a great player if he had a better attitude played better on D and used his brain when running the bases.
