Yeah, read that in the Globe today... he shouldn't be obligated to give it back but if he doesnt want to he should be able to keep it. Its not like its Red Sox property.

Come on, give it back. It isn't like he was someone who helped us a lot during the playoff run and the postseason, just a defensive replacement. Yeah, i could be worth a million dollars, but he is a baseball player, he makes 3 million a year. It seems really stingy to me. Does he own it? By the rules, yes he does. Should he keep it? No, it would just be selfish.

dan shaugnesdjasjdo is suck a jackass for writing about this, it was not a big deal at all- theo hadn't even heard anything about (as he said on weei this morn)... i don't think luchino had even personaly asked meinckjskldjvich to give the ball back, he just told the press he wanted him to.. so dan shaughenssy is making a big deal out of jack s***

Shaugnessy (i think)

Mientkiewicz

Just give that damn ball back, c'mon.

[Chitalian Stallion]

That would really be suck ass if he kept it. He basically kept it in his glove, put it in his locker, then have his wife take it out without asking anybody if he could take it.

[Soxfan1]

Official rules say that its team equipment and he has too give it back. Just do it minky that ball made history.

[RedSoxRooter]

It's his ball to keep - MLB even says so. But if he has half a soul he'd sell it to the Red Sox and nobody else. Christ, this would be like John Henry at an antique auction or something... "2 Million ya want??? no problem..."

 

Henry should get this ball for the fans by buying it from Minky at almost any cost.

This really sinks pro athletic selfishness to a new low. Of course given the way he hit, he probably does need the money.

[DOrtiz4prez]

Hey guys comon, wouldn't you probably be trying to do the same thing. I wouldn't call him selfish.

[Gertie]

In the Globe this morning (apparently on WEEI yesterday) Mink said that Shaughnessy completely misrepresented him. His "retirement fund" comment was intended to be a joke, and that Shaughnessy clew the issue completely out of proportion. Just another reason why I hate Shaughessy more than any other writer.

I hate Shaughnessy, he always tries to make a deal out of every minor issue, especially the whole curse thing, which was something HE profited from, and something he completely made up.

Considering I don't make $3.5 million a year, yeah I would keep the ball.

[Chitalian Stallion]

Why the hell would he take it anyway, with his salary he shouldnt take it for money.

Um, he'd take it because its the ball that won the world series.

[Chitalian Stallion]

Yeah, but the only reason he would need it was for money, since he has enough money he should give it to the sox because its more important to them than him, if he had any heart at all he would give it back to the sox.

NO! The only reason he would need it is because it's the ball that won the world series. This isn't about the money. It's a piece of history.

[Soxfan1]

Shaugessy is just going to turn this into the curse of minky.

[DOrtiz4prez]

Or the curse of Pedro.

[soxonfox]

Or the curse of Pedro.

 

 

we didnt SELL pedro though.

[Yanksin2010]

keep it mientkizvicadingdong!

[mtac288]

Good for doug, how could you gave up a three million dollar ball!

[soxonfox]

NO! The only reason he would need it is because it's the ball that won the world series. This isn't about the money. It's a piece of history.

 

 

 

i totally disagree. he said he would like to keep it for himself so he could sell it for his kids collage money. even though he makes over 3 million a year and doesnt even need any more cash, money was definitly involved in it.

[papi4prez]

dude...if he hasn't saved up enough money for his kids college money he's retarded. he's been in the league several years now and has enough money to retire right now if he wanted to. This is the ball that broke "the curse," it's his ball and he'll keep it because it's a part of history, no money involved.
