Man. I really like watching the Red Sox play on TV. Maybe I'll go to college at BC so I can get season tickets. It sure would be swell. Nomar is such a fantastic baseball player. He is probably the best contact hitter I have ever seen. It was really cool to see him jack that homer in his first game back off an injury last season. Jee whiz, I like the Red Sox. Go Red Sox!
I love Nomar, I think he's great. He's also yet to prove that he can be a durable player. If I knew he'd be healthy for 160 games I'd take him in a heartbeat before Jeter. Unfortunately, though, at this point if I had to choose one over the other I'd take Jeter...
Nomar is a BAD ASS! His butt just needs to stay healthy long enough to be in Jeters and Alexs class though. All in all I still hope the Red Sox find a way (they always do) to SUCK!
I wonder if The Boston Fans wondered what the Hell was going on when One of Their Teams Was parading down the streets the other day, Probably something they have never seen since The Celts in the 80's.
Nomar's #2 out of the SS's in the league... when healthy. To catch A-rod he'd need to improve on defense a bit and learn how to take a walk... and increase power. The more I think about it, there's A-rod and everybody else. I've heard them referred to as the "Trinity..." but Garciaparra and Jeter seem to have more in common with Tejada and Aurilia and the like than A-rod. The others all are great players, but A-rod's the total package.
Absolutely A-Rod is the top of the class. One has to be extrememly delusional to think otherwise. I still think, however, that a healthy Nomar is closer to A-Rod than he is to Tejada (who is still unbelievable if you look at the 40 years of shortstops...).
