Scotty Being Scotty

This comment by Sean Smith about the Dodgers signing Manny Ramirez is making the blogosphere rounds, but that doesn't make it any less funny:

"The Dodgers started the offseason by offering Manny 2 years and 45 million. After a few months, and the Dodgers upping the offer to 2 years and 45 million, Manny returned with a counteroffer: 2 years and 45 million. Much haggling was needed to find a midpoint acceptable to both parties, but in the end, they were able to settle on 2 years, and 45 million dollars."

I'm just glad that it's finally done and I can stop reading about how it was going to happen. I did kind of want the Giants to steal him away and position themselves to contend, though. I guess Scott Boras really does know what he's doing.
