Typical smug, worthless article from Shank. I hope Carl Everett shows up -- he will be forever remembered for the greatest nickname of all time, giving Shaughnessy the name that will be forever associated with him, the "Curly-Haired Boyfriend."

Typical unethical, smarmy writing from the Curly Headed Boyfriend. Note that Shaughnessy doesn't recuse himself from labeling Carl Everett with the "Jurassic" nickname Shaughnessy himself coined, without divulging his conflict of interest. Journalistic principles obviously don't apply to sportswriting at The Globe, since Shaughnessy's never been held to any. The guy's not a writer, but rather a shameless self-promoter. He invents the "curse of the Bambino," and turns it into a book and a lifetime franchise. The man doesn't write a word that isn't self-promoting (as well as puerile and pejorative). It would be sweet indeed if Carl Everett could return and beat the crap out of the Boyfriend.
