David Ortiz helps transform the Globe into a smut rag

David Ortiz–the man who ends his post-game press conferences by telling reporters to “go home and get some ass”–has made The Boston Globe so giddy it’s breaking out the double-entendres: a chart that accompanies Dan Shaughnessy’s article chronicling Ortiz’s walkoff homers is headlined “Happy endings.” (There is not, alas, a graphic showing the location of Chinatown massage parlors.) The chart does not appear in the Globe’s online edition, but is on page D5 of today’s paper.

  2. Seems to me as though it isn’t Ortiz transforming the Globe into a smut rag. Shaughnessy has been doing that all by himself for a number of years. He should really be working for the Herald; I would expect a writer of his “integrity” to be there, but it amazes me that the Globe has tolerated his inaccuracy and sensationalism for as long as they have.
