When ILK has said something "will" happen, then it has. So...believe what you want.

Remember, Boston might be picking up a nice chunk of the contract.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Yup, and Abreu's deal goes up substantially the next 2 seasons. They cut Thome's contract and didn't re-sign Wagner. They added Gordon, there should be money to add a player of Manny's caliber.

Exactly, when he says things like 'this deal has a chance' it doesn't come true. When he's said it 'will' happen it does.

Maybe if we talked more about winning the World Series every year.

Yea, we blindly support the team and teabag our idiot coach who has obviously no idea what hes doing

I was referring to turning a faint hope of something positive happening into a justification that it is likely to happen.

Anyone who says the Phillies are getting Manny Ramirez is a liar.

Good point about the Schmidt comparison Sun Mo. What I was inferring is our lack of appreciation of his talent. We didn't fully appreciate number 20 til he retired.

Speak for yourself, pipe-hitter.

Would he throw a tantrum over not getting #24 away from the best catcher in Phillies history?  ;D

Ed, Ed, Ed... Bob Boone wore #8, not #24.  ;)

You calling me liar?

Want some chocolate cake?

I will take a wait and see approach on this. But I cannot wait to hear the anti-Abreu crowd on the radio when Manny is loafing it up in the OF.

I would love Manny to come here.

And Boston would pick up some of his $$$$ most likely.
