That's an excuse year to year. It's not at all an excuse over a decade long tenure like Hahn's. I mean FFS, even Jim Dolan cleared house until he stumbled into a decent duo of Thibs and Scott Perry. Jerry doesn't need to be making sure the stairs at G-Rate are well swept or the hot dogs aren't moldy but he sure as s%*# needs to do a basic performance review of his GM every other year. And that review has only one conclusion: failing grade, motion to dismiss.

Someone made fun of me for linking a meme from it but google "tim anderson lipstick alley". It explains a TON. This dude made it his mission to be public enemy number one among a certain set of AA women and they have not let him forget it.

They were not favorites to win the division either in Vegas or from the projections. It was Minny. So I reject the entire rest of your post that follows. In fact, one of the most disheartening offseason moments was realizing that the true talent level of our squad was projected to be in sum around 80 wins. Not 90. Well turns out this team didn't even want to play to the back of their baseball cards and folded like a cheap lawn chair under an obese American.

How can you not blame the OWNER? It's not like he hasn't had enough time to judge the result of his Hahn hire.

i mean have you seen his SM? dude is a fucking headcase that needs to listen to tyler the creator's advice on cyber bullying and logging out.

This is fucking insane. How do orgs go bankrupt? Slowly and all at once. They never corrected any of the problems that lead to the rebuild in the 1st place including: 1) overall org structure with clear chain of command 2) coaching staff competence and overall org pedagogy for teaching skills at every level 3) financial approach, specifically ending asinine policies like not extending SP and offering the "friends and family" discount plan instead of just the highest AAV. Everything we are seeing right now is down to the slow organizational rot. Fish rots from the top down with JR. He's obviously ready to be put out to pasture and is intellectually incapable of running the team he owns. To a degree much higher than in the 90s and aughts.

Some Chat GPT levity...

Exactly. Culture is formed in offseason workouts, preseason workouts, preseason, and then is built during the season. It starts at the top, with the manager, and extends into the leaders of the team. If none of that is in place no amount of team meetings, yelling, whatever is gonna change things.

Yup. team rolled over in MAY! In fucking MAY!

Sounds more like he was the nail on the door in the Hateful 8. Trying to keep these guys on the straight and narrow wasn't easy.

If it leads to change great, if not it's probably obit man time for my fandom. hard to hear a player call out the team I root for as not even meeting basic professional standards.

This is much worse than the drake stuff imo. That seemed to be isolated to a wing of the clubhouse and was mostly an externally driven scandal, whereas this seems to be pretty much an org wide call out including basic standards of professionalism -- that came not from the media digging, but from a former player freely offering it up.

lol, touche.

I'm honestly surprised you have people defending TA or the Sox here given what was just said about the entire rotten culture here. Like f*** THIS TEAM. I don't care if Josh Donaldson takes a shot, let it rip!

I'm a sports junkie and I'm not sure I've ever heard of a situation like this. Usually these guys never spill the beans like this. If they do, they do it when they are retired or a decent amount of time has passed. The closest thing I can remember is when Slay and some other former Lions ripped the s%*# out of Matt Patricia but even that was like a year after the fact and when Patricia had been fired.

He's been known to slide through the bag. Which is probably why Ramirez took offense. I think Jom Boy had the video from just last week where tim slid into a guy's knee when he was out by 10 feet.

He can sleep with whoever he wants but keep it on the DL. From what I can tell, he's almost made it a point to let people know he slept around. It's just a bad look.

Yea, you can't say you're the new Jackie Robinson and then act a fool since Tim has. Or, if you do it, you don't become a negative WAR player.

I finally delved into the gossip around him after seeing some stuff on twitter. It is a pretty bad look. Really the worst part is how it will affect his kids. He has made a real mess. I won't defend him on or off the field he's burned the bridges.

had never heard of the forum until someone linked it on twitter. this is a funny ass internet moment. of course it's the sox taking another huge L.

LMAO man.

and apparently his jumpoff posted a picture of her laughing from the game and then deleted it. bro why is your jumpoff at the games? maybe that's why you've been one of the worst regulars in baseball for a full season now.

he's a fucking idiot that once again makes the Sox a national joke. Just walk away, stop being a fake tough guy.

GET THAT CLOWN TIM ANDERSON OFF THIS FUCKING TEAM. I'M DONE WITH HIM. IF YOU'RE GONNA DO THAT s%*# DON'T GET KNOCKED THE f*** OUT YOU ABSOLUTE CLOWN.

Honestly just cutting out the sox scouts and having the dodgers to find the good young international arms might be a better plan...
