Yes I am a homer, but it's not like Boston doesn't have a good choice of players.

Greatest

Football- John Hannah; I played the same position and wore the same number.

Baseball- Roger Clemens; argueably one of the best pitchers of all time.

Basketbal-Larry Bird; simply the greatest competitor I've ever seen.

Hockey- Ray Bourque; You know a man is popular when a city is happy for him when he wins with another team.

Not as great but still fan favorites

Football- Doug Flutie; No matter where he plays, I always root for the little man.

Baseball- Mo "Hitdog" Vaughn; Not since Babe Ruth had a fat man played so well in a Sox uniform.

Basketball- Robert Parish; Any man who can get 16,000 people to chant "Chief" is good in my book.

Hockey- Cam Neely; I cannot imagine how great he could have been if he had stayed healthy. Still a Hall of Famer regardless.

We all have our little faults. Mine's in California.
