  1. If this thread is about the culture, didn’t Don Cooper once say that cohesiveness doesn’t bring winning, it’s the other way around. (Or something similar)
  2. Too much talent in the pipeline. Am I in the right team’s forum?
  3. Dunno why but Plesac is irritating. Connor is ordinary. Sorry.
  4. You mean what Mark Grace used to call a slump buster?
  5. This sounds more like what I saw on Soxtalk for all of his years here. Plenty of bitching about him. He only seems to have achieved legendary status by leaving.
  6. One of your best. Funny you mention Olbermann. He does a podcast, too far out politically for mass consumption, but distinguished by having pithy musical comments delivered by organist Nancy Faust!
  7. Do I detect a pipeline? With something in it? This may take some getting used to.
  8. Same night Martin has feet of clay the rest of them have hands of clay. Makes Venable giving away yesterday’s game look worse.
  9. Save the pen lose the game.
  10. If the pitching miracle continues they'll still be competitive.
  11. There’s truth in this. The wrong weight training can cause cramping in the upper thigh. Stretching is the key. On off season jobs, Cubs OF George Altman once substitute taught for me when I was out for a day.
  12. Those names make me shudder. Add in the bullpen of $15M bozos that couldn't get anybody out.
  13. You contradict yourself. The eyeballs test tells me that the budget meant he had to be smarter and he is. More money can hurt if it leads to signing declining veterans. Can we just enjoy being the best team in the town and not pick, pick, pick? Credit to Getz and the coaches on all levels and Venable too for the way players get here and play better instead of worse. In a while Jerry will have to step up and sign his own players and I’ll be right there griping with you if he doesn’t.
  14. When he spends on veteran bozos on the downhill we lose. Perverse logic here but having a budget means you have to spend smart and we seem to be doing it. The time to spend is when you have to sign your own players. Let’s see him rise to the challenge then.
  15. Prevailing wind from the north ? You got me.
  16. That phrase can have dire meaning. So trusting Mune to loft a ball is cause for dismissal? We need a bull on that one. Not an NBA bull. A papal bull.
  17. Already given us more than the one throw Griffey Jr made in ‘05.
  18. Hope the game wasn’t riding on that at bat.
  19. Got great stuff and locates it too IMO.
  20. In the annals of dumbass drafting that one will live forever.
  21. Chairman of the Board is too much of a stretch. Drop it.
  22. What Venable said is what you say when you don't want to bruise the ego of the guy you're going to ease out. He isn't dumb.
