Big ups to Curt Detweiler from Ground Zero Los Angeles for forwarding me these photos, which are now appearing all over laundromats in the city of angels. I met Curt earlier this year in NYC, where we drank copious amounts of booze and reminisced over the legendary Gait brothers. If you don't know who the Gait brothers are, you're dead to me.

Who would of thought it would come down to this? Manny Ramirez literally threw himself out of Boston with both his mouth and actions. It started by a slap to Kevin Youkilis' face, preceded with a shove to the team secretary, and continued with his big mouth to ESPN DePortes.
