I'm just sitting here watching a Mariners game when I noticed a slight vibration characteristic of umbrage being taken and I said to myself I bet Manny has a new post up advocating motherhood or lobster rolls or some such and I logged on and there it was and pretty much the 1st reply was leaking umbrage. Or maybe it was the 2nd.
