Oblique-culous!!
I hope this is the last time anyone will say Manny doesn't give it 100% or Manny fakes injuries every September. Because I'm completely fine if Manny wants to miss a month if he is going to come through in the biggest at-bat in the biggest game of the year. That homer was a bomb. It left Fenway faster than I can eat a bowl of kibbles, faster than a swarm of Canadian soldiers can attack Joba Chamberlain's neck. Manny made the Angels pay for not pitching to Papi and that is bad news. Bad news for the remaining teams in the Playoffs who watched that and said, "Dog poo, now we have to pitch to Ortiz". Fausto- say hello to Papi, he is about to feast on your fastball like he feasts on a plate of pork chops. Canadian soldiers can't save you now.
Not to mention Manny's homer made Francona look like a genius putting Papelbon out there in the 8th in a tie game. So whether it's a strained oblique, hurt knee, or broken dread lock, if resting for a month helps Manny to hit walk-offs in the Playoffs, to make the Angels pay in the most painful way, to save the bullpen and give the team a chance to sweep, to strike fear in the hearts of future opponents, let Manny do whatever he wants and leave him alone. Like I always say, having a full belly and getting in a lot of nap time in the sunny spot always helps you perform at your best when it really counts. There's only one October, Dane.

Hi Big Pupi,
I was so excited when Manny launched his moon shot in Game 2 that I went running around the living room like a maniac. But there were two reasons why I was so excited.
First of all, it obviously won us the game. But that wasn’t the only thing that had me so excited. From all the replays I’ve seen, I have plotted the ball’s trajectory, and I am pretty sure it would have landed in Row 5 of your Section K-9. But since Section K-9 wasn’t there, it went out onto the street.
Maybe it’s better that way because we would have all been fighting for the ball like some of the crazy humans we always see.

I'm sure there would have been a dog fight, especially with all the retrievers that would be sitting in K-9!
