Hanrath) Organization: Corp Ed. Cen. AT&T Technologies - Lisle, Il Lines: 23 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.
