Forget Boston, Chicago Has The Curse Instead

If Grady Little isn't told at the airport "No need to go back to Boston, your tenure with them is done" then nothing is right in the world

I mean when did the "this town is cursed" bullshit start...

Boston Globe writer Dan Shaughnessy's book from 1990, is where the Curse name came from and has been driven into the ground ever since.

 

Next year...

Am I the only person who thinks that Dan Shaugnessy looks like the outcome of what would happen if you spliced Larry Birds DNA with Carrot Top's DNA?

If I was that fan I'd sue the Cubs and whoever published my name and address to the public.

Seriously, they've probably put his life in real danger.

Cubs didn't release his name, the media did. He got a free team jacket from the Cubs and that's all he's getting from them. In order to sue the media for a big settlement he would have to prove his life is in serious danger...thus far he could probably get them for their part in his harrassment and maybe "emotional distress"

 

In other news however

 

Associated Press

BOSTON -- The groundskeeper involved in a fight in the bullpen at Fenway Park expects to sue New York Yankees Jeff Nelson and Karim Garcia, his lawyer said Thursday.

 

"There is an investigation ongoing and it's anticipated we'll file a civil suit," said Patrick T. Jones, hired by Red Sox employee Paul Williams.

 

The 24-year-old Williams was involved in a fight Saturday with reliever Nelson and right fielder Garcia in the ninth inning of Game 3 of the AL championship series.

 

Two Boston police officers who broke up the fight said the players attacked Williams, a part-time member of the grounds crew who also is a special education teacher in Derry, N.H.

 

The players contended Williams provoked them by cheering for the Red Sox in the New York bullpen.

 

An incident report filed shortly after the game by two Boston officers indicated police would seek assault and battery charges against the two players. Since then, police have said no decision has been made.

 

A copy of the police report, which was posted on The Boston Globe's Web site, stated that Nelson "was observed pushing/grabbing the victim in the chest area at which time both parties fell to the ground where Jeff Nelson began punching and flaring his legs at the victim." The report also stated that several other members of the Yankees bullpen "jumped on the victim," and right fielder Garcia jumped the outfield wall, entered the bullpen and began "striking down at the victim with his left hand."

 

Williams was taken to a hospital and treated for head, mouth, and body injuries.

Shouldn't be that hard...I'm willing to bet he has gotten many death treats and stuff...as long as its not tried in chicago or any city not named Miami.
