    Wade Boggs wearing a Yankees hat ... while one of the greatest pure hitters I ever saw in person, he's such a fucking asshole.

    He has no soul. I still remember him saying that if Tampa gave him a contract so he could get his 3,000th hit that he'd go into the hall as a D Ray. Luckily the HOF doesn't let players decide what hat they were unless a player spent equal time with 2 franchises.

    as do I ... I hope he vomits every time he sees that it's a Sox hat on his head on that plaque.

    Oh, I'm sure next time Boston gets the game he'll wear a Sox hat. Hopefully Sox fans don't forget tonight when that happens. I'm kind of glad the Sox didn't retire his number.

    why do they make such a big deal about parading old guys out there? Joe Buck acts like this hasn't happened 5 times in the last 7 years or anything

    i think they're just giving respect to the all time greats. all star events are the only time that they get recognition on national TV.

    You know the answer to that, baseball is a game based on tradition ... and will be so for at least for the next 20 years.

    It'll be intersting when all the Free Agency era guys start making the hall and there's such a lack of the tradition to hold onto that this game was so drenched in for nearly 100 years.

    Uh, 1986? And I'm sure he relives every moment of the 1996 post season when he batted .158. ;)

    yeah, but others, like Winfield (SD/NY) and Carter(MTL/NY), they had their other hats with them ... Boggs just wants to stick it to the Sox any chance he can get, and look good in the NY'ers minds

    Eh, if it were up to him, he'd go hatless so he could show off that natural looking flowing mane of his.

    And whoever added varitek should be ashamed of themselves. I want to hear what he has to say about this. they say he's a standup guy: If that's the case, he'll admit he should need to buy a ticket to get into yankee Stadium next week.

    He's been the catcher for 2 no hitters back to back years. If you think it was all the pitcher you know absolutely nothing about baseball.

    And it would have been 3 if Schilling didn't shake him off with 2 outs in the 9th against the A's.

    so I guess Cooperstown should reserve a spot for a Joe Girardi/Jorge Posada shared monument.

    I was just responding to Joe Buck saying "hopefully we can do our best to follow that, that was truly a great spectacle" --when really it's done every year and isn't all that special anymore

    they don't normally go to such great lengths as they did tonight. Usually it's just the All Stars and a hometown hero. The last time i remember there being that many greats was Fenway 99, when they did the Team Of the Century deal. It would have been nice to see some more Yankee luminaries though. Lets see Bernie, O'Neill, brosius, Tino, etc... Not HOF'ers obviously, but they mean more to Yankee Stadium than most guys that were out there tonight.
