You can see it in the dugout! He does nothing. He doesnt even seem to care. Im so fed up with this guy. And ya wanna know why no one ever bad mouths Jerry? Because he never does anything at all, good or bad, he just sits there, in "Jerrys Corner"! He leaves occasionally, when he goes to tell Rick White hes been relieved of his duties in favor of Tom Gordon. And thats another thing. Even if we disagree on his motivational skills, how can you possibly not see anything wrong with his decisional skills?

Well hey, what are we arguing? I mean, steff knows everything! What the heck? Chill out a little, will ya? Christ. No need to flip out like that... Nope.. Steff knows FAR from everything. As a matter of fact.. I bet I barely know anything about what goes on behind those doors. Which is exactly why I feel confident in saying you are incorrect in your OPINIONS of what is going on. Why exactly am I incorrect? Do you seriously believe that JM makes any attempt to motivate this team? I sure dont! And even if were a bit unsure of his motivational skills, we can still see hes an idiot due to some of his pitching moves. And not to mention all of his darn tinkering!

All Im saying is JM lacks motivation. Does he ever seem annoyed when things are going wrong? Does he ever seem to have emotions? No. He just sits there like a schmuck. And then when he finally does have to do something he does it wrong. Like putting in Rick White in a close game when he specifically asked for the day off. The man is an idiot. Wally Backman would be much better...

I dont need to be an insider to see that JMs a lazy schmuck. You can see in his face that he doesnt care and that is unacceptable. Get Wally Backman in here. That man will fire this team up and maybe well start winning...

Well hey, what are we arguing? I mean, steff knows everything! What the heck? Chill out a little, will ya? Christ. No need to flip out like that...

Phil Jackson was a leader. Hed get ya motivated. That is what JM lacks. He lacks fire and motivation. He is too calm. The team can be getting killed or can be doing the killing but his attitude never changes. Not to mention he puts crappy pitchers in consistently in crucial situations...

But thats why JM should be fired. Kenny came down because JM wasnt at all motivational. And he still isnt. So Kenny had to take matters into his own hands. We just have completely different perspectives on the same situation. You think JM isnt doing his job because Kenny wont let him and I think Kenny is taking matters into his own hands because JM isnt doing his job...

I really dont like it when this guy talks. Im mad that the people hes talking about are slumping but its not his business. He should concentrate on his own play and let management deal with the Konerkos and the Garlands...

Eh, youre right steff. With all of KWs "boys" Im sure he has some influence...

Hey whered you get that smiley? I dont have it!

Happy birthday man. Ill be 16 in like a week, man. May 3rd. You aint old compared to me... And Im not expecting anything out of JG either. I just hope the Sox offense will beat the Twins offense that day...

Pick a fight with the Twins. I bet theyll piss us off this series and Frank and Lee will lead the the team out of the dugout and annihilate them. And maybe it will work like it did in 2000 and get our butts in gear!!!!

but the sox got their ass kicked in that one. Which one? Yeah, they kinda lost number seven but the 2000 one was definitely a win. We beat the crap outta them Tiggers. And it turned our season around too. We should fight again this year...

Best brawls ever Yeah baby!!! The White Sox organization got 5, 6 and 7! Number six was the 200 Tigers brawl and number 5 was some minor league brawl that the Winston Salem Warthogs were in. Its a pretty good article, but Im surprised Izzy Alcantaras little minor league stunt didnt find a way in. A couple years ago, Alcantara, an aging Red Sox prospect, was thrown at and he jump kicked the catcher and charged the mound. Benches emptied and things were pretty bad. Think Izzys outta baseball now...

Buehrle and Loaiza will do well but Garlands the one Im worried about. If he steps up our rotation will be complete. And this is the time hes gotta start. We cant be waiting on him to come around any longer. The time is now...

Well you cant really fault Coop for the fact that three guys arent performing (four if ya wanna include Garland). Every team is gonna have someone struggling, and we have three. Its their fault, they need to get into shape. Coop should work with em and try to figure out whats wrong but its not his fault. They are the ones who arent getting batters out, not Cooper...

Oh shoot, ya got me there. So he did screw up last year and the years before, but he made a pretty good effort bringing in talent this year. Its JMs fault hes making bad decisions. Steff, do you think KW tells JM to put Rick friggen White in at a crucial situation in the game? No, JM makes that decision. Hes the one who cant make the right decisions. KWs not the best GM but he shouldnt be blamed for our poor start this year...

Oh thanks a ton for all your help!

I was about to say that same thing when I said "that trash White". If he doesnt get it together, thats what were gonna be callin him...

Stewart for five, Wunsch for one, Glover for one, Marte for one and Koch to finish it off. How hard is that to understand?!

Well, no Coop shouldnt take the blame. His starters have a 3.66 ERA and three guys in the bullpen have done really well. The other three have not and they are screwing this whole team up. Koch will get it together (unless hes hurt, then were in trouble) but Im not sure about Gordon and White, they might just stink period. Well have to see...

Konerko is near league leader in GIDP. I think he has 6 or 7 now on the season. Well, whatever the number is, its pathetic. He needs to get his butt in gear...

LOL, I thought you said you were going to bed? I can see that 2 hours or so of cooling down hasn't helped. I posted this right after we lost. Long before I said I was going to bed...

Yep hsc, its time I forget about the call and concentrate on the present. I cant be living in the past. The game was lost and nothing is going to change it. Its time to carry out our frustrations on the rest of the league and start winning some friggen ballgames!

Another person lacking initiative, care or determination. People like this piss me off... If you have so much initiative, why are you seeking our approval in your quest to....have Cooper fired? Is that your quest? If you were such a type A personality, you would take action regardless of others' opinions. First off, I have idea where to send this message. And is Bud Selig gonna reform the game on the word of a 15 y/o kid? No way. I need the support of a lot of people for him to listen. One letter supported by one kid aint gonna change a thing. And doub, you speak your mind so I respect you for that. But you lack initiative, and that I dont like too much... Ooooooooohhhhhhhhhh, you're 15. That explains it. J/K man. But seriously, you can send a letter to the commissioner's office. Bud may not read it himself, but someone will. Print 500 copies and send them if you have to -- someone with an abundance of initiative will find a way. Again, an ump is not going to get fired and instant replay wont be installed just because an angry teenage fan asked for so. Heck, I bet even if an older poster like cubkilla or hsc wrote a letter it would still do nothing... I would just be wasting my time. Bud Selig has never done anything to help the game, why would he do so now? That play is in the past, Im just gonna forget about it...
