Um, I guess. I don’t know too much about what goes into being an ambassador, but V sure seems to appreciate and understand Japan, and from what I read the people of Japan like Mr. Valentine back.

Maybe this could become a thing, where say we make Jerry Manuel the ambassador to some country we want to be tough with and he could threaten to go gangsta on them.  Or maybe we could send Jeff Torborg to some country that we think is years away from developing.   What other manager ambassador jokes ya got?

In other Bobby Valentine news, V is scheduled to be at the Queens Baseball Convention on January 28th.  You should come discuss international politics with him.
