All you've done is make him even more moody and less likely to want to play hard. I'm stumped. I'm an ardent Manny-supporter, and have been mocked for it. But I really don't get what Theo hopes to accomplish with this move.

Exactly! At $20M a year, even George isn't dumb enough to claim him. I had the same thoughts as you when I read the article. I was mystified why they they would do that.There's no upside to the move that I can think of.
PS- 14 pages and still rolling!
