What? :blink: :)

 

So I misspelled another word? For Christ sakes, I misspelled the word misspelled. Thank you spell check.

 

Lynn, what I was TRYING to say is that if someone could not be in attendance, maybe a live, remote, satellite feed of them could have been arranged. Sort of like when you watch awards shows and someone is on a screen from across the world accepting the award.

 

I hope I have explained what I was attempting to say!;)

Great article here. The link is the biggest news to me.

 

Tito should have worn the red pullover instead of the game jersey.:D

 

Millar should have worn the KFC bucket on his head.:lol:

 

I was in FL with the family visiting my in-laws and missed all this.

I see it this way too.

 

 

However, if all side would agree, there could be a video of someone not "able" to attend on that huge screen in center.

 

WTF.

 

Schilling's absence is typical for his outsized ego. Perhaps he has heard that John and Larry are not happy with his criticisms in the media. Even Tito eventually relented and showed up because he realizes that the Red Sox legacy is larger than any individual. Schilling thinks he is larger than the Red Sox.

Danny Boy has been in the process of writing this book with Tito almost from the moment Tito left Boston I believe. He was certainly there when Tito made the decision to go to the ceremony and without doubt was one of the people Tito consulting about going back. He might have been the very first person he consulted because they are spending a good deal of time together. I am equally sure that Danny Boy told him that he should go both for good reasons that suited Tito and for purely selfish reasons that suited Danny Boy.

When I get back home in a week, I'll be so excited to see Billie Jo Robidoux and Ed Jurak an uniform again! I'll be fast forwarding through that horrible toast though...

It was in DS's column that Tito announced he would not be attending...exclusive interview to his fellow book writer I guess. Now whether or not that was a publicity ploy for both of them would depend of one's opinion of both of them.

 

I personally am not big on "now I've changed my mind" because I believe that should have been thought out before the big announcement. But I really, really hated the jersey thing. Did that show TF's opinion of the FO...yea, but also it was a symbol of the team...so doing that sucked.

I agree...it might even been to some extent irrational or it might for that matter have been planned by Tito and Danny Boy.

 

Whichever, they have been at this book almost from the time Tito left so all that venom that is clearly still boiling out of Tito is all going to be in there. Would not surprise me at all especially with Danny Boy involved if that appearance was something like a book preview event...something real authors used to do in the day when people actually were reading books.

 

As far as Tito is concerned, the Sox cost him. So he would not in my view have a moments hesitation to use the Sox to plug the new book. Like I said before he came and after he was announced coming, this would be the big middle finger to the Sox organization. I guess I should have said that this would be the first big middle finger to the Sox organization.
