He's done in China. They loved him. They named candy bars after him. But he's done. He's not interested in Japan. Still angry about Pearl Harbor. He wants to come home. To America. To NYC. He wants to hit in the majors. He says he can do it. Who knows? He's just Manny, being Manny.
Sign him, sir. Sign him before our enemies do. Sign him tomorrow, if you cannot sign him tonight. Sign Manny, and start printing the tickets.
Understand? Sign Manny; sell tickets. It's that simple. I need some reason, any reason, to keep following this wretched, tiresome team. Everyone does. A lineup where Jayson Nix is batting second inspires no hope. Besides, how bad can Manny be? How much worse can he be than Vernon Wells? If he goes 0-4, he replaces guys who are going 0-5. It's a wash, a write-off. Sign him.
Pull the trigger. Make Manny a Yankee. Come on, Cash. Where's your gambling instincts? Roll the dice. Sign him. Now.
SIGN MANNY RAMIREZ.
WHAT CAN GO WRONG?
Maybe signing Manny isn't wrong, but Manny didn't go to China, nor is Wang a Chinese citizen. Maybe the Yankees should sign the "other" Manny Ramirez.
ReplyDeleteNo. We cannot sacrifice our values to win this war. If we do that, they win. It would be a hollow victory.
ReplyDeleteSign him for laughs.
ReplyDeleteThis team is so freaking boring right now, I'd even consider signing Canseco.
Dear dummy. Wang is from Taiwan, not China. Yes, technically Taiwan is a territory of China, but that's like calling someone from Puerto Rico American. But it doesn't matter because I'm sure you just assumed he was from China when you read his name.
ReplyDeleteWang is a Taiwanese sensation, not Chinese. So is Wei-Yin Chen from the Orioles. Manny Ramirez played in the Taiwanese league for E-DA Rhinos and not China.
ReplyDeleteBTW there are currently no players from China in MLB. Boom, just dropped some knowledge on ya'!
