RIP Bill Buckner

[HuskyHawk]

Standing ovation? Was that 2004 or after? Bill made a mistake? His error is not the same as people personally attacking him for doing something none of those idiots have done since a softball game or LL where they sucked anyway Hawk. Let's not throw Bills "mistake" in with the idiot fans "mistake."

Hey it's over is what it is. but it was awful for a very long time, really awful by a lot more than a "few".

I'm done he was a great baseball guy, player RIP Bill.

No, 1990. He was still playing. He ended his career back in Boston. Bill Buckner Forgave Boston — and That's What Matters I'm not defending any idiots who threatened him or attacked him personally. I'm simply saying it was over long, long ago.

I agree with your last sentence.

worst boston thing ever? on behalf of countless millions of former boston area college students (NOT 'bc' students, they can't sing, dance, or playsports), we say the Rat's demise in k-square knocked the earth ever so slightly off its access. even nukes, or kale chips could not do that. don't know much about him, but that sox dewey guy always seems to have deep props across lobsterland. his baseball card is nice but his 'q' rating is off the charts. why? did he single handidly defeat the klingons at waterloo? did he change his name from horace clark? life can be confusing at times. r.i.p, double b.

So it's not unique to one city or team. I remember a good young pitcher whom the Yankees signed as a free agent. Ed Whitson was heckled mercilessly by the Yankee(home)fans and would not let his wife go to games.
I remember the chants...Ehhh Dee....Ehhh Dee.

Yeah but that's an unfair comparison because he didn't make one bad play he made 25 bad starts LOL.All kidding aside you have this right fans were rotten, don;t think he was all that young he actually was proven prior but never was able to make it in NY as so many others found.
