Sports Guy returns to long-form writing in an "E-Ticket" piece today, on Manny Ramirez's acrimonious departure from the Red Sox. Bill's take- which, to be honest, probably didn't need 9,000 words to articulate- is that it's mostly Scott Boras' fault, but that Red Sox management isn't utterly blameless either.
The other twist? Footnotes! Lots of them! Presumably a homage to the recently deceased David Foster Wallace.
