''You can't insult my manhood,'' Everett said Friday. ''This place here was full of lies. It's always been that way for minority players. That's just how it's always been.''

 

''I [was] a focus player, and when you come to this town and you're different than everybody else ... Manny [Ramirez] is different, I'm different. A Jim Rice was different. That's how it's always been.''

 

He never says anything since he got to the white sox, and he's "turned the page" on the red sox, but his time at the white sox seems to be all about ripping the red sox. Contradiction, thy name is Carl Everett.

 

You know what, I've also turned the page. I've forgotten that good ol' crazy Carl ever played for the Red Sox. Seems to me he played on the team during those bad old days in the Duquette days that I've also mostly blocked out.

 

Incidentally, I like how the reporter sought out from the RS organization for a response, especially since Carl identifies Jim Rowe as a liar.A sterling example of journalism. I also like how the famed head butt incident was down-graded to a mere bumping of the umpire. Sounds like the reporter got a diploma from the Ken Harrelson Homer School of Baseball Writing.

''Well, you still have some of those old people over there; the trainer for instance,'' Everett said. ''I don't know about some of the other people, but the trainer was part of the mess. He was garbage. The head trainer, Jim Rowe, he was part of the mess over there. A big liar. All around, when I was here, it was a terrible organization.''

 

Then the ChiSox trainer, seeing how cranky Carl was, gave him his blankie and put him down for a nap. What a whiner, you're gone from the organization for 4 years now, you gonna bash them every time their the opponent? Get over it, Carl.

You guys seem to forget how productive he was for you. Granted, he was a pain in the ass, I will always remember him for getting ejected at family day at Fenway Park for cursing at the umps, but the one sight that I will always see in my mind when I think of or hear the name Carl Everett is that little blooper falling into left field with 2 strikes and 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th inning, breaking up Mike Mussina's perfect game :(

 

Anyone remember that game where he flipped off the pitcher after hitting a Home Run? haha

 

Carl just needs to shut up, hes on the best team in baseball, thats what he should be focused on, not the Sox racist past.
