I don't understand your crazy moon language

From Pete Abraham's baseball blog:

Interim Mets manager Jerry Manuel laughed about the temper tantrum Jose Reyes threw when he took him out of the game on Tuesday to protect his hamstring. "I told him the next time he does that, I'm going to get my blade out and cut him, right on the field," Manuel said. "Hey, I'm a gangsta now. You go gangsta on me, I'm gonna have to get you now." Everybody laughed. But right-wing gossip monger Matt Drudge didn't get it. The headline on his Web site the next day said only, "New NY Mets manager threatens to stab a star player."
