Red Sox Manager Bobby Valentine Hates The Yankees

Not wasting a moment to spice up the rivalry, new Boston Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine declared Wednesday how he feels about the New York Yankees."I hate the Yankees," Valentine said while surrounded by a herd of media members at the Winter Meetings. "I don't want to waste this valuable time talking about the Yankees. This is too valuable."Valentine, realizing his comments, could cause a stir, then sat back in his chair and imagined the headline, "I hate the Yankees."On Tuesday, Yankees manager Joe Girardi was asked what Valentine's presence would mean to the rivalry and was a little more diplomatic."Bobby adds some spunk to his clubs," Girardi said. "No doubt about it. I didn't get to witness him first-hand a lot. But Bobby's been successful wherever he has went. It should be exciting."

What a freaking tool. Good job Red Sox new manager (insert name here), you hate the Yankees!!! Now Bostonians will love you when they sober up enough in February to remember the Sox changed managers.

 

Valentine won't be getting a job with the Yanks once his new contract runs out. Way to close a door!

 

It's probably in his contract that he has to say this.

 

This isn't a generic "insert Yankee hate comment because I'm a red sox member" statement. This goes back to the Subway Series in 2000 when Roger Clemens tried to shishkabab Mike Piazza. Bobby Valentine legit HATES the Yankees.
