Actually, most the fans are more then happy to make this move.
While nomar has done some good charity work, he's always been viewed as someone who doesn't really enjoy it here and can't handle the pressure. He hides from the press, he chokes in the big games.
That all being said, most people seem to be fine with the idea, especially where it means moving Manny.
Especially now, the only time Nomar has ever "reached out" was a clearly BS PR move, calling into a local Radio Station. Plus his agent tried using the press and they both got bitch-slapped by John Henry.
Nomar and agent "Waaaahh... no one talks to us, no one tells us what's going on, they don't want' us here"
Henry "Well, we offered him 60million over 4 years and he turned it down, so we need to explore other options"
and Nomars call was such crap, he kept saying how he didn't know where people go the idea he didn't want to be here, yet never said he did. He was asked questions like "If the Sox get A-rod, would you be willing to try 2nd or 3rd" and he dodged the question "I can't really speak on that, since the Red Sox haven't told me what's going on"
anyway, I've always been a Nomar fan... but he's looking like a real ass like now. If it's all because of his agent he should fire him. Turning down 4 years at 15mil a year in Spring Training was stupid, everyone saw a market correction coming.
