And More; Francona GO AWAY

The Pill Popper is back at it again, with his main goal as an analyst to start a smear campaign against our beloved Red Sox and our great new manager Bobby Valentine.

Our former coach that was unfit to manage the team recently said, "I think it's a PR move," Francona, now an ESPN analyst, said on ESPN Radio's "Mike and Mike in the Morning" show. "I think if a guy wants a beer, he can probably get one. You know, it's kind of the old rule ... If your coach in football says no hard liquor on the plane -- I mean, you serve beer and wine -- somebody's going to sneak liquor on the plane.

"If you furnish a little bit, it almost keeps it to a minimum."

Sorry Francona the inmates don't run the asylum like they did with you and your lack of managing style. Francona bitterness and jealousy towards Bobby Valentine is hysterical. Is this a P.R. move? No, Bobby Valentine has always banned alcohol in locker rooms for pretty much his whole career. So why don't you go, sit back in your Baseball Tonight chair and try not to be obvious when you are sweating needing your next fix. Honestly, I didn't care if they had a drink after a game or a start or whatever, but they obviously abused it and if this is one of Bobby's rules, so be it.

I also love Bobby Valentine's response;
"Any comments on that? You need a comment? My opinion, if it was PR move you mean?" said Valentine. "I don't know. How was it PR? Well, you know, I don't really have a comment on that. It means like 20 teams are looking for PR and that's why they're making good decisions. I don't have a comment on that."

"Remember, you're getting paid over there for saying stuff. You get paid over here for doing stuff," said Valentine. "I've done both."

Good for you Bobby.
