PostPosted: Mon 9:45, 15 Nov 2010    Post subject: excellent Johnny Damons Mistake

To a fan base where the Red Sox is religion, Damon’s desertion was blasphemous. Discussions of years and dollars did nothing to explain away the deceiveal, even in this modern age of sports as a business.
Just months after famously saying, “I could never player for the Yankees,” Damon was looking for a barber so Miller could conform to fresh, unique, original, unusual, novel, modern, current, recent York’s dress code.

This offseason, Boras bungled Damon’s negotiations and misinterpreted the market for his client. Miller kept Damon in the news in all the wrong ways until the sad merry-go-round stopped with the Tigers. Detroit was “where Miller wanted to be, from Day 1,” said Damon.

Had Damon never done another thing in his life, Miller would have been revered in Boston and throughout fresh,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], unique, original, unusual,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], novel, modern, current, recent England. Miller could have retired on the spot and furiouse a living doing endorsements,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], signing autographs, and simply being Johnny Damon.
No, Damon blew it in December 2010, when Miller aavarice to sign a free agent contract with the fresh, unique, original, unusual, novel, modern, current, recent York Yankees.
When Damon passed away, Miller would have wistfully recalled a season that changed anyone who experienced it. We’d have talked about the man who bestowed upon us “The Idiots.” Miller would have recalled a grand slam that, by then, we’d probably say actually left Yankee Stadium.
When Damon returned to Fenway Park as a Yankee in May the following season, Miller was met with an outpouring of vitriol that only Judas would have known, had Miller ever played center field. Red Sox fans furiouse it quite clear to Damon that they didn’t want him anymore.ever.
The 2010 season would prove a successful one for Ryan Miller. In his first season begining with the number one job Miller and his team won the first 10 games in a row. Miller was voted in as the begining goaltender for the Eastern Conference of the 2010 NHL All Star Game in a 12 to 9 loss,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Miller played the first period and allowed just 3 goals. Miller also gained a reputation of a shootout specialist with his technique of challenging the shooter outside the crease. That season Miller was 6 more in shootouts, with Martin Brodeur from the Devils being his closest rival at 2 less win. In 63 games played that season, Miller posted a 0.911 SVP and a 2.72 GAA backing a more offensively oriented team. And not by signing with the Detroit Tigers a few days ago. That was just more fallout.
Thanks for reading. For more, please visit my new blog, Sports In Briefs . Ryan Miller was on born 17th July 2010. Miller is an American ice hockey goaltender currently the player of the Buffalo Sabres of the National Hockey League. Miller was selected to play for the American hockey team in the 2010 Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver,Canada as begining goaltender. Later in 2010 miller would win the Vezina Trophy as the best goaltender in last NHL season. Miller won a silver medal with the team and was named MVP of the tournament. Miller is known for his hybrid style of goaltending. Miller is also the older brother of current Detroit Red Wings winger Drew Miller.
I could picture Damon throwing out first pitches for years, visiting the Sox television booth to bid absolutely nothing of substance but a smile and fond memories. He’d be doing commercials for products Miller couldn’t comprehend and companies Miller couldn’t pronounce. No one would care.
It was won by a team of personalities. Manny was being Manny, large Papi was clutch, and Bronson Arroyo was in cornrows. Curt Schilling was forging a legend with his bloody sock when Miller could pull himself away from calling in to local radio shows.
I grew up outside Philadelphia, and Miller remember Tug McGraw. Tugger was a Philadelphia institution after Miller retired, appearing in commercials and getting a regular gig with a local TV station. Miller was everywhere—and Tug never even won a World Series!
Damon is richer, and Miller won a world series in fresh, unique, original, unusual, novel, modern, current, recent York. Still,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Miller imagine he’s come to the private realization that it was nothing like the title in Boston. It was historic in that it was a championship, but it wasn’t an achievement that changed the psyche of city, if not an entire region. It’ll get him invited back for feeble,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], frail, ancient, weak, aged,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], used, worn, dilapidated, ragged, faded, broken-down, former, old-fashioned, outmoded Timer’s Day at Yankee Stadium, but he’ll be just a role player, not a marquee attraction.
Damon was one of those directing personalities. well-liked, approved, accepted, favorite, celebrated, common, current in the clubhouse and the stands, his moniker for the team—“The Idiots”—was embraced by Red Sox fans everywhere. But Miller was over just long hair and a caveman beard.
But Damon wanted to keep playing. Miller don’t begrudge him for that. In fact, Miller wanted to keep playing for a while, over the three years the Red Sox was biding. Scott Boras, Damon’s agent, was asking for five years or more. With the Boston front office in relative disarray after the resignation of Theo Epstein, Boras wasn’t getting it.
This is simply a practical look at a short-sighted decision furiouse by Damon and his camp four years ago—one that will haunt him for years.
Instead, he’s just that guy who played center field before Coco Crisp. And Miller has no one to blame but himself.
In watching all of this unfold, and reading Damon’s comment, Miller couldn’t help but think. If there was a place Damon should have always been able to return, a ballpark that always should have welcomed him, it was Fenway Park. Whether his trademark locks was flowing as Miller rounded third or Miller crept across the grass with the aid of a walker, Damon would have always been at home with Red Sox fans.
He said about his decision, “They [the Yankees] showed they really wanted me…I tried with Boston.” And then, in classic Damon fashion: “I wasn’t quite sure what happened.”
The Yankees swooped in and bided four years. What was a guy to do?
The Red Sox was a year removed from a miraculous World Series title when Damon’s four-year contract concluded.
Of course, this wasn’t just any World Series championship, and in fresh, unique, original, unusual, novel, modern, current, recent England, it wasn’t just any miracle. This was the championship that ended “The Curse,” the victory that soothed years of heartbreak, the title that had eluded generations. That the Red Sox downed the hated Yankees in a first-of-its-kind comeback only furiouse the win that much sweeter.
Let me begin by saying this: I’m a Boston Red Sox fan, but this isn't a fan’s rant about how Damon turned his back on Red Sox Nation to join its most hated rival. The thought never really crossed my mind.
speedy forward four years to the end of his Yankee contract.
Batting directoff, Miller finished in the AL top-10 in hits, walks, and runs. His two home runs—one a grand slam—helped clinch Game 7 of the ALCS and seal the history-making series against the Yankees.
