Charlie Mikolajczak points out:

Nice rebuttal on the Clemens article. My buddy at work and I were a bit annoyed at that as well. One thing, when you were talking about Bobby Orr, etc, you forgot to mention that Ray Bourque went to Colorado to win his cup. And Boston gave him a parade. I don't understand how Clemens gets made out to be a villian because he left a team that didn't want him, when Bourque gets the city's blessing to do the same thing. I know it was a trade, but Bourque was with Boston 18 years before that, if he wanted to stay, he could have.

Good point. Bourque gets a free pass to fulfill his dream of winning a cup. Clemens finally wins a World Series ring or two via a circuitous route through Toronto and he's seen as a prima donna.
