It sickens me that Yawkey is in the HOF.

Yay, we agree on something!

P.S. Isn't it like 5 o'clock in the morning where you are?

Yawkey was a racist drunk, and it also sickens me regarding the absolute revisionist fantasy history surrounding him and his equally miserable wife Jean.

He and Higgins got along well because they were two of a kind.

I lived through their 'stewardship' of the Red Sox, and it it truly shameful.

Remember where Jackie Robinson's first MLB tryout was and what happened?

Remember that the Sox had a unencumbered chance to sign Wille Mays, who just might be the #1 player that most would select in an all-time cosmic draft?

I get sick just thinking about all of the opportunities squandered by Yawkey and his good ole boy buddies.
