The only thing that I can’t fit into this equation is the Mena trade. What was that all about in light of what’s about to happen?

Or the opposite of ridiculous

I got no problem with it. If you don’t like it, you don’t have to read his posts. If anything, you’re in the minority. Schriffen is a laughingstock for the majority of fans.

I’m not convinced Jerry’s death will solve the problems as long as Jerry’s spawn carry forward his genes. It’s worth a try though.

Nothing matters. Do whatever. As long as Jerry is the owner, do whatever.

FIFY

WE NEED A RELIEVER!

Who’s “we” white man?

Generically speaking. Yes. Sox speaking, not sure. You may be right, But a candidate does know going in that he has no chance, the team is backing up the truck, and nobody is coming to the rescue any time soon, including the owner. Best guess is, interim guy already in the organization is what Getz would do, and don’t discount that guy staying on. We can at least safely say that Getz will never have the pick of the litter.

What he cares about is that he did it his way. Jerry is delusional enough to believe he knows what he’s doing, and he’s just a victim of circumstance.

As I have been trying to point out, once Pedro is let go, Getz has his own man, and puts his own autograph on a disaster, and begins his accountability clock. Right now, Hahn is taking all the heat. If I were Getz, I am not anxious to start my clock yet

That’s fair enough. I just don’t know how Getz can install anything other than a lateral move. He can’t sacrifice anybody he had in mind that might actually be good on the current roster. It’s like throwing your man into the wood chipper. Not only that, if you’re a good managerial candidate, you’re not taking the Sox job anyway if you had better options, which a good candidate should. One of those options is to tell Getz good luck with your life.

Standards are important. Some fans aren’t bought cheap, and resent being taken for granted. If you want to be a doormat, be my guest. Don’t act like it’s supposed to be the most appropriate kind of fan there is. Fan the way you want to sir. I don’t have to believe it helps the club.

Homers are the worst kind of fan for a terrible organization to have

Necessary change is not necessarily the correct changes under Jerry. They’re never going to their minor league foundation right. We’re waiting for decades. It should sink in. Not happening. At this point, losses are fun just because Jerry is humiliated. If he has any shame.

I don’t disagree. To a certain degree, this kind of polishing thing is expected. However, if I am expecting these particular guys to learn the game in the show under these conditions, this is a hopeless mission. Players gotta be capable, and also hopeful. I want to say by the time this team is winning again, the roster will be completely overturn, a new manager in place, and this is just a closed chapter. Right now, kind of have a hard time mustering up any passion one way or another to be honest.

It’s good to stand up and tell the truth. Even if truth doesn’t matter ? The players are only human though. They suck. They know it’s hopeless. Time to think about girlfriends, the house, the family, and spending money instead of what’s really important. Baseball.

Maybe he does maybe he doesn’t. But I always get a kick out of fans getting incandescent over the mangers of garbage teams. Kind of misplaced fury.

Ozzie isn’t about to lay down on the tracks in front of a moving train. And if you are Getz, you aren’t very anxious to put your own guy on the tracks either. Maybe, you pick the guy that begs for change at the intersection on the way to work. And you tell everyone where you found this guy just to get him off the corner for awhile.

Eventually the time will be right to make him be a rightful scapegoat for all organizational sins. And the next cannon fodder will be put into place.

Ozzie’s not stepping into this

Is he really a goner though? I mean, I get it. But the next guy clearly has no shot either, if it was Joe Madden, zombie Billy Martin, or Dusty Baker’s younger version time traveling. Who is gonna take this job? Nobody good that’s for sure. If you’re Getz, you didn’t hire him, and he is taking most of the bullets for now
