He may be "colorful" and "eccentric" ...

Did the Can deny asking the same racist Wade Boggs to be his kid's godfather?

PJ from Boston...No One [b:d1c26bc88e]No One[/b:d1c26bc88e] uses the "N" word more than Kevin Garnett. have the newspapers and radio shows stepped up to verify that....Otherwise I guess it ain't true. :roll:

[PJ Axelsson]

We all know that. Ever since he came here his mannerisms on the court have been an issue. That is established fact 1000 times over.

How does that apply here to the Boyd Boggs thing, which remains one mans word vs. anothers?

[nevdully's]

Well two things PJ...First does K.G.'s mannerisms being discussed include his use of the "N" word?

I'm a Celtic fan and we all know he drops the "F bomb" and plays as dirty as can be....and we all know that's been discussed...But my question is have they wrote about his use of the "N" word?

And how it applies here is that you seem to take Boggs at his word, but need to read from others in the Boston Globe to take Boyd at his word.

Here's what we can be pretty sure of....Boyd is or was a druggie...I'm not so sure others are going to be in any hurry to substantiate his statements against Hall of Famer Wade Boggs....just not a good public relations move for anyone to do that, so don't hold you breathe waiting....doesn't mean Boyd's lying......we also know from his past that Boggs is a liar.

[PJ Axelsson]

The N word wasn't left out of the KG discussions, if that matters, and I side with Boggs here because I simply believe him more than I believe Can. Is that okay to do or do I need to provide proof of non-racist thinking?

I suspect some men will go an adult lifetime and only take a chance on lying about one thing, their own infidelity.

Okay.

[quote:764f57163e]Just my common sense meter here, but if what Boyd says was true, don't you think someone would have or will come out and back him up?
[/quote:764f57163e]

I just think this wouldn't happen even if what Boyd said was true...Most would say its not good p.r. to align yourself with a druggie while going against a Hall of Famer...why would they...what would they gain.....

I think what Canseco wrote was mostly true and no one substantiated his claims...matter of fact many called him a liar.

See PJ-
and Im sure some people wont understand what Im about to say- but many here are unwittingly and ironically proving one of Boyd's points about our justice system.
There is no way any of us can [b:72002544e7]know[/b:72002544e7] who is telling the truth without any corroborating evidence- yet a number of people said they believe Boggs- its he said vs he said, isnt it?
Why?
Hes more articulate?
His Father is a veteran and veterans dont use racial slurs?
His wife agrees with him?
the talk show hosts act as if they believe him- and gave him 20 mins to talk about it, yet no one bothered to ask Boyd for a specific example?
Hes a HOFer and they always tell the truth?
Boyd took drugs, and all druggies lie?
Boyd has a book out, ergo he will make up anything to sell it?

Ex-Pres clinton lied about infidelity, and the country (not me) wanted him impeached- but if Boggs does it, doesnt matter? (personally couldnt care less about his infidelity, but we do know he lied bout something, yes BK you may be right on that)

If I say I think the moon is made of cheese- wouldnt most people expect me to provide a reason for saying so or they think Im crazy, right?

I think 9 is greater than 10.
Oranges should be purple.
Dick Chaney was a nice man.
Appollo Creed shoulda taken out Rocky in the first movie so we could have an Apollo 1-14, and in the 11th movie there would be a disaster where he would unwittingly malfunction and come back to earth.

[Mr Baseball World]

No one here can know the truth. As far as I have seen no one has said they know who is telling the truth. That does not mean they can't look at the evidence and say given the evidence at hand who they believe at this time based on the evidence at hand. As more evidence comes out, they may change their opinion.

There is a difference between disputing a known fact and the Boggs/Boyd situation.

nine is greater than ten, when it comes to the fielding chart!!
