I don't know why I'm starting this thread. I don't even like baseball that much anymore. I can't watch more than a 1/2 inning at a time.

But, I was wondering the other night looking at the Red Sox current players, which of those guys would be "patriot type players'?

Ortiz? Veractik (sp)? Who else? I do know wouldn't be so don't try to BS me.

I hope that I haven't created a monster by starting this thread.

Pitchers are all a bunch of pussies, so I won't even talk about them much, but Papelbon would certainly qualify.

Definitely Varitek, Ortiz & Nixon.

Probably Youkilis & Lowell, too.

I love Manny, but he's definitely NOT!

The jury is out on Coco Crisp and Wily Mo Pena, but the way Coco is milking this "finger" injury, he's probably a NO. And the way Wily Mo chases down balls full speed in center, he's probably a YES!

Gabe Kapler is a BIG YES, as is Doug Mirabelli!

Some recent past players:

Bill Mueller - YES
Johnny Damon - YES
Edgar Renteria - NO

Varitek, Mirabelli, Youkilis, and Wakefield would probably top the list.

This is silly. While you're at it, why not compare a rabbit to a pineapple?

I'm truly sorry, this post has forced me to come out of lurkerville and finally say something...

"Oh darn I got a paper cut, I can't play tonight coach"

Could be attributed to any baseball player - not a single one is a Patriots type player.

I just asked a question because I don't think that more than 5 out of 25 would qualify.

Would Larry Bird or Kevin McHale or Robert Parrish been patriot type players?

Schilling's a stat nut. I'm told he's got a big stack of binders that show exactly what every American League hitter's tendencies are. So he'd probably fit in in terms of preparation; but Baseball is so different.

btw Tek is great at what he does, but he's the last guy I'd want on the Pats. The pitchers love him 'cause he's good a calming them down when they're pitching bad.

Imagine Brewski going "Just relax man, its ok. You'll get him on the next play." to some rookie who missed an assignment or was out of position before the snap.

Wait a minute! Now I remember. Manny Ramirez bears a striking resemblance to that night security watchman I saw asleep in his truck outside Gillette after the Colts game last year. There was a Twinkie wrapper on the dashboard and he had drool in the corner of his mouth.

so which pats players can be called "bruins type players"??? Hmm a rabbit or a pineapple huh? Hard choice.

Well, for starters, you can eat both of them, they're about the same size and both of them have a fluffy appendage on one end.
