No, seriously. He invented the wrap.

It's unlikely Bobby Valentine's success with the Red Sox will ever match his culinary grand slam. While everyone knows Einstein invented the "Theory of Relativity," Valentine claims to have created the Wrap sandwich.

And there's pretty good evidence for it....

Although not as cool as other American food inventions such as the Corn Dog and Philly Cheesesteak, the wrap is an integral menu addition for many restaurants around the country. Today the wrap is served by a number of fast food giants, including McDonalds and KFC, but it was the man who's now working in the home dugout at Fenway Park who (in theory) came up with concept....

Not buying it? Wikipedia posted a couple of lines on Bobby Valentine's profile that credit his sports bar, "Bobby V's Sports Gallery Cafe," in Samford, Conn.
(that's Stamford, you morans -Ed.) as the first restaurant anywhere to serve the sandwich.

Well, now we know what the postgame show will be called: "The Wrap with Bobby V."
