Re: kevin millar
This has been a tremendous thread and Popeye has been hilarious as usual.
I am glad to see I wasn't the only one shocked that Millar was a) throwing out the first pitch b) announcing the lineups or c) acting like he still played for them. And I'm pretty sure he sat in their dugout all night. Good for the Mets by telling Boston "no Pedro."
Seriously, that kind of thing just undermines competition. I would've been just as annoyed if the Cardinals had Matt Morris throw out the first pitch for Game 5 of the World Series last year. Sure, he's a fan favorite and there's not a true Cardinal fan on the planet who doesn't love him, but he doesn't play for the team anymore.
God, the Boston organization is so smart they're stupid.

My friends who are Oriole fans are upset by Millar's actions. I think it's inappropriate. Good on the Mets for turning down the request for Pedro.

For whatever it's worth, I'm a Sox fan and it annoyed me, too.
