Shank Surrenders

You want shameless bandwagon hijacking? This is how you do it, folks:
This one clinched it: Tom Brady is the greatest Boston athlete of all time

I surrender. No more old guy lobbying for Ted Williams, Bill Russell, and/or Bobby Orr.

Tom Brady is the greatest Boston athlete of all time.

Many of you are probably thinking, “Obviously, hi-ho. Everybody knows Brady is the best of Boston.’’

Not everybody. Not old-timers like me. Some of us remember things that happened before last weekend. We cling to the past and are reluctant to yield.

I am still bothered when 21st century Hub sports fans talk smack about David Ortiz being better than Teddy Ballgame. It’s not even close, people. Big Papi won those three championships, delivered in the clutch, and stood up for our city when tragedy struck in 2013, but he can never be a star the magnitude of Williams.
