While these guys are there, Boston treats them like God's

I don't think you read the Boston sports pages much. They have not been kind to Mo, or Nomar, and especially Roger. In fact most athletes who leave Boston (Basketball and Baseball mostly) usually cite the print media as one of the main reasons for leaving.

"If you can't handle the heat, get out of the kitchen."

This season ticket holder bids a fond adieu to Mr. Martinez, and gives a hearty chuckle at the Mets' latest oncoming disaster.

I live(trying to relocate) in MA. I(sadly) read the Globe daily and also, the Herald.

The Boston media treats their players like they would their girlfriend. They're fine when they're 'puttin out' but when they leave it's slander time.

Yeah but now Pedro gets to face the NY ink...and down there, the sports writers' ink is venom. While I wish Pedro well & look forward to taking in some Mets games, it's always sad to say adios to yet another Hall of Famer. Ah well, spring training is just around the corner. The wife found a pair of tix on the net for opening day. $1500!! *cough*
