Which Red Sox players refused to go to the White House?

Also, Curt Schilling actively campaigned for GWB right under John Henry's nose. I know Mike Timlin and Johnny Damon were Bush supporters. I suspect Tim Wakefield, Kevin Millar and a few other Red Sox players were Bush supporters, but I can't prove that.

And "big Red Sox fan" John Kerry's favorite Red Sox player was some guy named "Manny Ortez".

I was at Fenway during one of the games in which John Kerry made an appearance late last summer/early fall. When he was announced, there was a smattering of polite applause, along with a big round of BOOs (My husband and I and two friends contributed to the latter, of course).

All Red Sox fans/players/employees are NOT RATs...

Manny visited his ailing relative, and several of the 25 were no longer with the team-- Petey, Lowe, etc. Even DiMaggio and Pesky were there.

I remember that...

Priceless.

I would love to attend a BOSOX game some day.....not that I'm a big red stocking fan...Just would like to see the Green Monster.

P.S. Any team that beats the dang Yankees...is a good team...in my book.
