Another great Bob Ryan Column


http://www.boston.com/sports/other_sports/articles/2004/11/17/a_few_things_come_to_mind?pg=2

Some excerpts I liked:

  • What does Theo do with the rest of his life? Step down and run for the Senate?
  • I hope that when they get through casting the statues for Messrs. Schilling, Martinez, Ortiz, Damon, Ramirez, Varitek, etc. they remember to at least commission a bust of Dave Roberts.
  • The Celtics are sticking their toes into the shallowest of cheerleader/dancing girl waters this year. They just don't have the guts to do it for real as long as Red is around.
  • In contrast to the notoriously penurious '86 bunch, these Red Sox have established new levels of generosity with their postseason money. As a result, a full share is worth about $70,000 less than it was last year.
  • Bill Parcells had better realize that if he stays in Dallas much longer, maybe he won't get into the Hall of Fame. Remember, Will McDonough is not around to argue for him.

    And my favorite, as a card carrying Shaughnessy hater (who aparently called Ortiz a pile-of-shit many times before the season began):
  • John Henry should just go for it. Have Shaughnessy throw out the Opening Day first ball.
