I have to agree with Dave Van Handle (and others) that the
booing of the National Anthem of Canada was inexcusable.  I 
would never THINK of such a thing for ANY country, let alone
our neighbors to the north.  Besides the Canadian National anthem
is such a beautiful song (I always sing along whenever the Cubs
play the  Expos or the Brewers play the Jays) that you should be
happy to hear it played.

In other news: Steve Stone says that Ray Knight should change his
name to "Mookie" so that when the Mets fans boo him, he'll just
think they're saying his name. -:)

Re: Pena vs. Carter - I think that Ned Yost makes this argument
moot.

Finally; I hope that the Jays fans don't boo our N.A.  because
then it shows that not everyone has to be so petty.  It's pretty
tough to have ~60,000 fans not boo after the NY incident, though.
