The "Rocket", intense training and bad attitude included, finally won his 300th game and broke the 4000 stikeout mark as well. Only 20 pitchers b4 him have ever done it. He also has 6 Cy Young awards, btw--he could move past Tom Seaver and challenge Steve Carlton as far as modern day pitchers r concerned. And that's important as some of the real old guys on the list such as Lefty Wynn and Cy Young himself pitched every 2 days or so.

So what's ur take on the guy? Love him in Bean-town, hate him in NY, 4got about him in Toronto? Admire his work ethic? Think he's a creep? How many games will he end up winning in his entire career? Does Maddux or Glavine (well, not if he stays on the Mets! ) have a shot at 300? Will he leave Yankees at the end of the year?... And now Danlo looked in that direction, too. He remembered that snowy owls mate in the darkest part of deep winter, and so along with this beautiful white bird perched in a tree a hundred feet away, he turned to face the sea as he watched and waited.

God finally he gets it! Do you know what pisses me off? The fact that he'll be wearing a NYY cap in the Hall of Fame! Need I remind you that he won 196 out of his 300 wins right here in Boston?! Ah well, bastard or not, he's still one of the best pitchers of our time..but I still like Maddux more! Heh Further up, and further in!

Last thing I heard, in that regard, is that Clemens, himself, wants 2 wear a NYY cap upon induction, but it's the descision of the Hall of Fame. Their descision is that he will wear a BoxSox cap. They'r doing the same thing 2 Gary Carter--he want's a Mets cap, they'r going 2 make him wear the Expos cap...bunch of babies! And now Danlo looked in that direction, too. He remembered that snowy owls mate in the darkest part of deep winter, and so along with this beautiful white bird perched in a tree a hundred feet away, he turned to face the sea as he watched and waited.

: Well said!

Oh that's right, he wants to have a Yanks hat, but they won't let him. He said that if they don't let him wear a NYY cap, he's going to take some sort of trip with his mother instead of going to the Induction Ceremony. Ouch! That one hurt, Roger! Further up, and further in!

I didn't know that the Hall had all that much say as to what cap to wear.

When Carleton Fisk was up for the Hall there was a debate as to if he would wear a Red Sox or White Sox hat. He started for and his career moment was with the Red Sox, but he played longer for and hit more homers for the White Sox. <i></i>

He's remembered as a Red Sock here. Further up, and further in!
