Ego tripping at its finest.
Last night, Hanley Ramirez was benched after he decided not to hustle in chasing after a ball he booted, even though doing so allowed two runs to score. When asked why he didn’t run hard, Hanley said, “I’m Hanley Ramirez, bitch.” He later told manager Freddy Gonzalez, “Fuck your bench, Freddy! Fuck your bench!” Ramirez then turned to teammates, saying, “You bitches can kiss my chain!” apparently in reference to the tasteful necklace the Marlins owner gave him to commemorate winning last year’s batting title. Ramirez then lit a $100 bill on fire in front of reporters, took a shit in the team shower, and spit in the team’s Gatorade bucket while daring anyone to stop him.
