The owners of the Red Sox have shown their pettiness by refusing to invite a key member of the 2004 team to participate in the opening ceremony with the rest of the group. I don't care what idiotic excuse they give, it's clear that Curt Schilling was left out because his conservative politics don't align with the liberals who own the Red Sox. It's the exact same bias that we see from the Boston Globe, the newspaper that they own.
Imagine if the Patriots refused to allow a player to participate in that kind of ceremony because he didn't support the same political views as Bob Kraft. I'm sure that wouldn't happen though because Kraft has more class than to let his politics interfere with supporting ALL of the players who helped make his teams successful.
I'm not sure that I can continue to support the Red Sox if that's how shallow they are. Not that they care.
