More Manny Bashing

Regardless of your personal stance on the matter, is this really necessary?
He’s now a dreadlocked distraction, and the example he sets for Andre Ethier and Matt Kemp and James Loney and Russell Martin – that not watching the game is acceptable under any circumstances – is pitiful.
Would it really have been that hard to watch a few regular season Dodger games before writing such tabloid trash? If anything, Andre Ethier and Matt Kemp are the ones setting the examples.

"Their manager, Joe Torre, has nearly a fistful of World Series rings and earns the respect of players because of his loyalty. To allow Ramirez to so willfully co-opt everything for which they stand with his blatant disregard for the Dodgers’ well-being is a sign of misplaced priorities."

What does Jeff Passan expect Joe Torre to do? Drag him back up to the dugout by his dreadlocks? Have a little chat with Manny? Fine him?
Yeah that's a great idea. Piss Manny off. He's coming back next year. He's got a history of acting out. Why get him going?

Let Manny be Manny.
