Zen - those are good words.
I think that any sox fan who had started to have warm feelings for Clemens in the twilight of his career now realizes what a selfish ballplayer he always was.
I agree Duquette was a fool who said many foolsih things- but Clemens quit on the Sox (somebody ask Shaugnessey about that!) so they moved on.
I always thought Clemens was a greedy ballplayer. Yes, they all "want to get paid" but he took it to another level. Does he really need to milk an additional 10 million at this point?
I could have lived with him going to Houston - but back to NYY? Nope.
Maybe I would feel differently if he had said (last october) I made a mistake siging with Houston. If I come back next year the only team I will sign with is the NYY.
Issue #21 immediately please.
