Can Anyone Tell Me What They Think Makes Nomah A Great Player?
Why do people have the idea that Nomahhhh is such a great player???  What has he done in the game of baseball that merits him being called a great player? 
Come on guys...offer up your best pitch and I will see if I can hit it out of the park!  |
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

He's not a great player, he just had a catchy name that sportscasters liked to say out loud.

Potential is what you have when you are working your way up through the ranks.....that is also something he left behind a few years ago....if he is still labeled as having "potential" at this late date, my friends, he is what is known as a flash in the pan! |

slip, i don't think clemens would flourished if he stayed in boston. when he left he had ahair across his a$$. who knows, nomore may follow suit if he finds his heart, stops popping up, stays away from double plays, and starts making routine plays in field.

Afterhours...You dont think Nomar has a hair across his $$s....All you guys forget about all the great plays Nomar made...Typical Boston fans,,,And believe me I am one...But I have not forgotten,,Granted Nomar made some bad ones,but he made a lot more good ones if not great ones

skd, nomore was ONCE a player who was approaching greatness. one of my favs, he used to give 100% and hustle. i think the wrist injury started his downfall, that and his ocd. and i am a typical boston fan, tough love. i'm hardest on the ones i love the most.

All I have to say is The Future will tell the story...Lets wait and see how Nomar is percieved...His attitude , which I agree has been bad, will probally hurt him as Rice's has...

No, but I think he was the one to pick up Jim Rices baton in the "hitting into double plays with men in scoring position" department! I hope he took it with him to Chi-town!  |
