Yes, kids hear that word all over the place, and I'm not as much of a vernacular prude as this makes me sound, but have a modicum of tact, Ortiz. He is such a putz. What's weird is that nobody in the crowd seemed to care, nor did I hear anyone mention it in the media afterward. Maybe I was all alone in my annoyance, but that's fine.
You're not alone, I didn't like it either. But it was 2013 pre-game not 2004. It was mentioned in the media and basically celebrated as a show of defiance and "Boston attitude" after the marathon bombing.

Oh, really? I remember it as being 2004 and as part of a celebratory event. Thanks for the correction, though. Either way, it was just low class.

I was watching it live, and I have not tuned in to a live baseball game or event at home since 2004. My memory is clearly playing tricks on me, unless Ortiz did this twice. That could very well be, too.
