I cant believe Boston would do that, yes he should have yanked Pedro but Martinez even admitted it was his fault and that he should be blamed...this guy brought them within 5 outs to the World Series and he gets the boot? I wouldnt have fired him.

Boston fans have been giving Little the same middle name they reserve for Bucky Dent.

It was a mercy killing. Little would have been public enemy number-one next April at the Fens. Kinda like that unfortunate Cubs' fan.

Not fair, p'raps, but such is sports...

I'm not sure that the Bosox actually fired him...his contract was up and they just didn't renew it. It may be somantics, but they're not on the hook for any money for future years.

Brutal call on the organizations part given a 93 win season in 2002 and 95 wins in 2003. Not too shabby for someone who doesn't fit into their long-term plans...couldn't have been that Pedro thing at all :rolleyes:.
