May 3, 200421 yr http://redsox.bostonherald.com/redSox/view...articleid=18882 ``How long is (Pedro) planning to stay, three years?'' Ramirez was quoted in the article. ``I'll loan them a contract. Whatever they want. How much do they need? It's for Pedro.' ``I am serious,'' he said sternly. ``I want Pedro to stay. Pedro's the heart of the team. He's been here so long. I think it's going to be a sad moment to see him leave. That's why I said what I did. It's really no problem for me. Hey, how much money do I need?' Manny Ramirez = class act
May 3, 200421 yr Wow, I never really liked Manny, but that's pretty cool. I don't know if it'll work out or not though.
May 3, 200421 yr Wow, considering all the bad press ManRam gets it is cool to see him want to help the team get Pedro on board any way he can. That is pretty cool. I don't see Konerko offering some of his money to bring Maggs back
May 3, 200421 yr Can you imagine Frank Thomas doing that??? I can't imagine anyone on this team doing that.
May 3, 200421 yr Author Manny's never been the guy whos been all about the money, its been his agent Jeff Moorad. He just wants to have the fans like him, and shelling out millions of dollars is definitly helping.. which brings me to the point, maybe we have to start booing the hell out of Konerko so he defers some money to Maggs.
May 3, 200421 yr I can't imagine anyone on this team doing that. but nobody on this team makes close to manny money either...

May 3, 200421 yr Author but nobody on this team makes close to manny money either... but there are players on this team who are just as overpaid as Manny..
May 3, 200421 yr but there are players on this team who are just as overpaid as Manny.. i'm not arguing that. i'm just saying we're joking about a guy (konerko) that makes what 8-9 million a year to defer a million or two to help sign mags. while manny makes 20 a year and defers 5 mil. manny's deferment is easier to swallow...
May 3, 200421 yr i'm not arguing that. i'm just saying we're joking about a guy (konerko) that makes what 8-9 million a year to defer a million or two to help sign mags. while manny makes 20 a year and defers a couple mil. manny's deferment is easier to swallow... Im not joking.
May 3, 200421 yr Author were talking about millions of dollars here.. i dont know about you but to this day i dont give away my milk money...
May 3, 200421 yr were talking about millions of dollars here.. i dont know about you but to this day i dont give away my milk money... Milk money is a stretch term here.
May 3, 200421 yr You guys are actually buying into this BS? The player's union won't let Manny do that (see ARod/BoSox fiasco) and he knows it.
May 3, 200421 yr were talking about millions of dollars here.. i dont know about you but to this day i dont give away my milk money... i don't either but, then again, i don't make anywhere close to the million dollar range let alone multiple millions of dollars...
May 3, 200421 yr Author You guys are actually buying into this BS? The player's union won't let Manny do that (see ARod/BoSox fiasco) and he knows it. The difference is from what I've heard is that Manny is willing to give his already earned money to the Henry group, as opposed to A-Rod who was lowering his per year dollar amount on future years.
