Any of you notice a similarity between Manny Ramirez and Kimi Raikonnen? They have always reminded me of one another, the are both one of the best at what they do, both are confident enough in themselves they don't realy care what other people think, both like to avoid attention but stumble into it anyway, and both realy hate the press.

Then they take to shoving somone within a week of each other, sort of an ironic occurance, considering the similarities.

When I heard about Kimi shoving the photographer, I always think it's Kimi being Kimi, and the same with what they always say about Manny being Manny.

Kimi doesn't take three strikes looking from Mariano with RISP and the game on the line. Stark difference right there.

Last night he sent one deep to the green monster in the bottom of the 8th scoring three runs and tying the game, setting them up for the win. The night before he batted in the winning run in a 1-0 victory, so he's making up for it.
