What has happen to baseball?
Remember the days when teams stuck together
Through the melodrama and injuries
Ted Williams and Dom Dimaggio
When baseball was more then dollars and Ws
So Manny had some attitude
Doesn't everyone in Boston?
We are a bloodied sox, long haired, rag tag team
We are the underdogs and champions
Did we forget who helped us along the way?
Manny's trade will go down in history
With Clemens and Pedro and Nomar
And those are just the ones I remember
What can I say, I am all about nostalgia
So good-bye Manny, good luck in LA
And no matter what some Boston fans say
We'll miss you
Especially when we realize this young hitter can't play

Oh, tear! That picture of him walking away doesn't help any, either!
I'm going to the Sox game this Sunday and it'll be so weird without Manny there. I will have to recite this ode in his absence. :-)
