    It definitely sounded like they did a good job initially. These type of things though can be unpredictable and the doctors might've been erring on the safe side when Manny came into the ER. They might've figured that they would do an initial clean up and stabilizing operation and then see how things went before tackling something like putting pins in his bones or a bone graft. From the initial operation they might've decided things were progressing good enough as to require the further operations.

    No one posted about it being inappropriate until three or four days after... and others also post about "music threads coming soon" or why no one asks about what music he was listening to and stuff like that, and I'm the only one who is "inappropriate here", sure. Y'all take this internet crap too seriously.

    Manny, I meant no harm and y'all know it and I even sent good wishes.

    hotballa, still waiting for that response to my "quip."

    What did I miss? Rivalry between Manny Ramirez and Swoly-D?

    Anyways, I'm glad you are doing OK, Jon! Here's to a speedy recovery, dude.

    I think what made people who were genuinely concerned feel uneasy about your post was that you were joking, even though none of us could know yet how serious or even life-threatening Manny's condition was. That said, there were a few others who made similar comments, and I am sure you didn't mean harm.

    Not to derail but this thread is about a well known poster involved in a major accident where he suffered a major injury apparently. That's probably the one thread you should take seriously. Later.

    It's because people were ignoring you due to you being a d******d of gigantic proportions. While Manny hasn't always been my favorite poster, and I don't doubt that the feeling is mutual, I have zero ill will towards him and would never want anything like this to happen to him or anyone else on the board.

    This wasn't some news article about some random person, this was one of our own. It was/is personal. Do you know what people could have handled? A sincere apology. Instead you went mega-douche even when you knew you were wrong. Congrats on alienating even more people.

    Manny, I apologize to you if it made you uncomfortable that I joked about you listening to music while you had a wreck. Again, get well soon.

    Clutch or any other admin, please delete all my posts in this thread to make all these people happy.

    when you're an a$$, everyone assumes what comes out of you is merde...that may have a little to do w/his reaction to YOUR query.

    No need to give them the headache when you can do us all a favor and just find another website to post at. Win/win for all.

    Genuinely don't think Swoly meant any harm & I believe he was trying to somewhat lighten up the mood...

    That being said, very glad Manny's doing better. Get well soon man.
