He should resign after the last out on Sunday. We as fans are done with patience, no more rebuilds, we want the club to be run like a big market franchise, not the Pirates or the Royals, they need to bring in the best GM and manager available along with coaches who know what they’re doing. They also must start spending money and sign free agents while building a viable farm system with good scouts and instructors, not people who are just collecting pay checks, if Reinsdorf isn’t willing to do this then he must sell the club to hopefully someone who will do everything I mentioned, If Getz isn’t doing it on purpose … who made the trades this season? Who made the free agent signings last off season? Who signed Clevinger. Did these things happen all by themselves or did Getz have something to do with it?

Stay a fan and be angry all the time. B. Drop them and find another team. C. Ignore them for a couple seasons (be patient) until something with getting excited happens. JR moves on for example. I guess go into exile for a decade? Rebuilds are risky while the more established teams retool. The problem with baseball there are other owners to be angry at for those who like the game. There's 6 of them that are bad for the game. It becomes more of a business than a game. Interest is declining because it is less about the fan. It's not just attendance but viewers.

He thought he was doing the right thing but he was dead wrong in just about every move, he’s the wrong guy for the job.

Where was the input from others in the organization that should have advised him. Somehow I think this organization is full of people that set each other up for failure and be blameless.
