Fantasy baseball is fun. Because fantasy baseball management takes a daily effort from team managers, we're intrigued by the copious amounts of news and notes that are delivered via the respective fantasy service wire.

For instance, the following *tip* about All-Star right fielder, Manny Ramirez, came across the fantasy wire a few weeks ago.
LF Manny Ramirez caused a stir last week when he opened up to several media outlets about his newly adopted yoga and meditation habits as well as his intense interest in a book titled “The Secret.” Many of Ramirez’s mind-expanding activities have come at the urging of his Uncle Rico, an avuncular figure who has been a near-constant in the left fielder’s life over the last few years.

On any given day, Manny could oversleep, urinate in the corner of the dugout, go 4-5, or wake up on a Fiji island covered in puke. Now he's hanging out with Napoleon's Uncle Rico.

It’s all delivered via fantasy notes, and it’s all very real in the world of Manny. But, I expect that.

On Thursday, I received an odd little nugget of information concerning one of my frontline starting pitchers, John Maine.

New York Mets starting pitcher, John Maine, told IN TOUCH WEEKLY that he has a crush on former "Friends" star, Jennifer Aniston.
“I just love her soft and natural, girl-next-door looks and the way she carries herself, her whole demeanor. Oh, yes, the hair. The hair is unbelievable! I think she just gets better looking as she gets older.”

Her hair? Seriously? Even a gay guy would call that homo. People stopped talking about Rachel Green's hair in 1996. You're a Major League pitcher on one of the prominent teams in the National League. Grow a pair. So...say Mr. Maine had the opportunity to meet his crush?
"I’d probably be so nervous, I would trip over my feet. I guess I would take some pictures with her and give her a hug. Maybe she’ll contact me somehow and it will actually happen. Wow, how cool would that be?"

Dork.

Let us not forget about the quotes John Maine last year regarding his involvement in some weird cross-dressing party.

I've never dropped anyone outright on my fantasy squad because of their extracurricular activities, but this might be too much to handle. It's enough that he looks like the Joker from Batman. Do you think Maine strikes fear in the eyes of National League foes such as Ryan Howard, Albert Pujols, and Prince Fielder?

I doubt it.

Jennifer Aniston's Nipples are too big. I much prefer Keeley Hazell's nerps, as she constantly rocks the puffies.

You think I hesitated for a second before nailing Marilyn Monroe while Joe DiMaggio watched? What is wrong with these morons today?

You're damn right my nips are rock hard!

Jan = Jen. Oops.

RYAN......To each their own, but I have to respectfully disagree with you. I think Jan Anniston is damn near perfect. I mean, her nipples are ALWAYS, ALWAYS ROCK FUCKING HARD!!!!

Nice stuff. Just wondering....why don't you guys ever do this type of material (commenting on news) more often. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy all of the other stuff...just wondering why you stray away from the usual "blog type" items.

I don't even think it's the magnitude of women, it's the manner he's commenting about her.

That dude pisses me off. He's a pro baseball player he could get any kind off ass he wants whenever he wants and he's acting like a pussy. I mean don't get me wrong, I'd wang her but she aint shit.

Rachel Green was hot. Jen Aniston is not.

Hilarious! One of the better pieces you've done recently. "Dork" pretty much sums it up!

Terrell Owens has a baseball team (John Maine's hat)?

Maine is seriously ugly.

Joel Youngblood

Not even the Expos' mascot bought into the fact that Joel Youngblood's right bicep measured 25 inches.
