Red Sox Manager Shows Lack of Class…

…Proves He’s Former Met.
New Sox manager Bobby Valentine yesterday criticized Derek Jeter and praised Jason Varitek’s fighting prowess, saying,
“He is a man’s man… He was able to beat up Alex [Rodriguez]. All that stuff is good.”
I have a lot of respect for Jason Varitek—no chicken and beer for him—but let’s get serious: Varitek managed to win a fight in which his chest was covered with a huge pad and his face was covered with a steel mask. This doesn’t make him a man’s man, but a rank coward for not at least taking off his mask before attacking A-Rod. It’s like taking out a gun and shooting someone, then claiming that you won a fistfight.
More to the point, is Bobby Valentine about to prove himself a bonehead in the Rex Ryan mold?
As the Yankees and the Giants have proved in the last 12 months, winning quietly is far superior to flapping your mouth and losing…

I’m sure Bobby Valentine will irritate you many times this year, but come on, he’s no Rex Ryan: http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/extras/extra_bases/2012/02/valentine_admit.html

The real good news for the Yanks is the Valentine is a crappy manager.
Oh, and that they don’t have to live in Boston.
