"manny being manny" with his hands in the air even when losing and that kind of stuff. Baseball has always taken itself too seriously, and Jose was one step away from that .. I think this is bad news. Unless he channels it into hitting and goes on a tear, then I'll reassess ;) seriously .. “manny being manny” with his hands in the air even when losing and that kind of stuff.

Believe it or not, the goal of every baseball team is to win baseball games. The Marlins don’t need handshakes to motivate them.

He can certainly still have fun, smile, celebrate a victory, just with a bit of professionalism thrown in. he is a vet now, so being totally focused on the game, and being the best player on the field that he can be, is a major benefit to the team.

He realizes that he looked stupid and all that cockiness that the 86 mets showed was because they abused teams, physically and mentally. they won 108 times. 20times more than the dancing fools that were bored at times last year. You all cannot be mets fans if u seriuosly think we have this in the bag or that we should be celebrating before we accomplish anything. the real mets fans are pessimistic and when santana was traded we werent confident until it was announced that he was signed.and stop talking about the juiced up yanks cause right now thaey have more problems then we ever had. the 86 team! are u guys all smoking crack…this team cant touch that team..you are all the same people that thought we would cruise last year and we will win the world series this year..we havent proved shit. the same arrogance is what got us with our tails between our legs. the only dancing that reyes was doing after sept was at his sister wedding in DR..and at that wedding his uncle slapped him in the head and told him to stop being so provacative with his own cousin.

I said I do not believe he will stop doing handshakes. I repeated that about 5 times if you take the time to read. I never said I had a PROBLEM with it. I don't. Stop taking whatever you're angry about in life out on me. The fact that you're getting so worked up over a quote that he made in a newspaper is a problem in itself. “I don’t get you people with your “just play the game” bull…the game is supposed to be fun….you’re just like the people who got post-touchdown celebrations banned from football – i’ll bet you hated those too…”

People can use Reyes as an excuse for that all they want. The Mets and Glavine laid an egg. They were flat. Keep blaming Reyes if it makes you feel better. Boohoo.

Everyone all of a sudden has an issue with it when reyes is hitting .200 It's nonesense. Jose shouldn't "STOP" anything - just work on your skills and concentration in between games and be ready to come out and play. Showing emotions and coming up with clever handshakes has nothing to do with how concentrated on the game he is.

Some of you people act like he's going to be a zombie now because of a quote in a newspaper article. Did you happen to see his interview yesterday? Did it seem like he was not smiling or being himself? Did it seem like the Mets gave him a lobotomy and he will only frown from this day on?
