If Pedro showed up wearing a Phillies (or even a Mets) ring at a ceremony, it might not bother me. But, to beg and beg for an honor you don't deserve, and then tweak the team when they finally give in was too much. <br /><br />When the Sox gave out their rings in 2005, Derek Lowe showed up, and wore his Red Sox jersey as part of the ceremony, even though he was on the Dodgers at the time. He caught some grief from LA for doing that. (Not a ton, of course, since it was LA. But some.) It's the same thing. You represent your team, not other teams from the past. Boggs is a Red Sox in the Hall of Fame. He needs to act like it.<br /><br />Clemens didn't wear his Yankees ring, and the night wasn't even mostly about him. When Roger Clemens is showing more class than you are, you know your wading in the shallow end of the pool.

Aren't you Sox fans done crying over things like that? For goodness sake, you have won 3 Championships, so act like it and don't let those petty things bother you.
