Manny Turns Down $25M


Manny Ramirez, yesterday, turned down a one year deal for $25 million with a $20 million option for 2010. It was the Dodgers' fourth offer for Manny. That's big money, coming from a franchise playing in a state that's broke! Normally, I wouldn't care. I still haven't forgiven the Dodgers for leaving Brooklyn. I'd like to see manager, Joe Torre do well, even for a franchise guilty of dumping on its own fans.

Would Manny be elegible for unemployment benefits?
