This time, he's serious



AL East, look out.

If his spring training is any indication, Manny Ramirez is gon take all y'all by STORM.

Know how I know? He showed up to Spring Training --- THREE DAYS EARLY.

Yes -- the man some have labelled "a hitting savant," "baseball's Owen Meany" and other vile stuff showed up for camp THREE DAYS before the team-dictated March 1 deadline. Nevermind position players have been in camp for almost a week -- Manny just did something out of pure DESIRE. For the Red Sox, no less.

I am giddy. To celebrate: Let us bask in Manny's suavity and style.

Next up -- Manny levels the city of New York with one flick of his wrist; Manny eats the Toronto Blue Jays for breakfast -- that is, SECOND BREAKFAST, hobbit-style; Manny cures cancer; Manny runs the four-minute mile; Manny balances his and all of his teammates' checkbooks.
