where do you rank Big Papi in Boston sports history?

[Galvatron]

I rank him behind Bill Russell Tom a Brandy and above Yaz Bobby Orr and Ted Williams

In a city with Tom Brady, Ortiz ran Boston.

He was the key figure in what will forever be the winningest period in that city's history.

Papi is one of our greats but I have a hard time just putting him in the top when Manny did just as much if not more.

Boston was a baseball town before Ortiz and will be a baseball town after Ortiz

The Pats were an afterthought before the Brady era

Manny's exit from there wasn't on good terms. Every other year they tried to trade him at the deadline.

But that's why Ortiz is so beloved. He got the most popular team in that city not just the one that broke the curse but 2 more on top.

Over Williams ? lol

Ortiz brought 3 Championships to this city, although Ted Williams was an amazing player he didn't bring any, Williams Career was overshadowed by the "Bambino Curse" something that Ortiz and CO made an afterthought.

IMO Pedro's Legacy in Boston >>> Manny.

Which is why they appreciate Ted more
