After the initial joy of the Sox winning the WS had subsided, attention quickly turned to the 2005 home opener...against the Yankees...when the Sox would receive their rings. How sweet, making the Yankees stand on the baseline or sit in their dugout as the Sox revel in their glory.
Now, management is saying they don't want to "rub it in the face of the Yankees" and are considering alternatives for the ring ceremony.
So, poor sportsmanship or not?

no way. they should get the rings during their home opener, and if it happens to be the yanks, all the better. that rivalry is the best in sports, and anything that fuels it a little more is cool by me. plus it might take some of the sting away from getting swept.

Things are shaping up nicely already. Nixon, Schilling, and Wells have all taken shots at ARod, and no one has stepped up to defend him. Fantastic :lol:

the morons who make the schedule should be strung up by their balls
the yanks and sox should not play so early in the season at all
but the rings should be given and the yanks should suffer (again) for their collapse
I realise that I have a past to break with--an accumulation of inertia, wrong, foolishness, rot, junk. A great need of clarification, of mindfulness, or rather, of no mind. A need to return to genuine practice, right effort. Need to push on the great doubt. Need for the spirit. Hang on to the clear light.

I wouldn't go that far, but there's probably a certain truth to that.

schilling is a good pitcher, but an even bigger jerk than the unit
hard to imagine, but true, and unit will outpitch the big shill over the season

That's assuming Unit won't be too busy smack talking reporters and photographers.

I think he might talk a bit much, but I'm not sure he's done anything to warrant his being called an ass. Then again, I'm biased.

Opening day is the day to give the rings, no matter what.
p.s. Yankees Suck.

Two words: bloody. sock.
I'm pretty sure he could do anything short of killing Tom Brady and still be ok around here...which reminds me, in a recent poll on bostondirtdogs.com, Schilling killed Belichick in "who would you vote for governor" contest.
