Being a Sox fan that truely does care, I couldn't miss out on the recent trend of giving the Sox props.

good piece but I fail to understand why JM still gets bashed -

I was a frequent basher of him, but there's no reason to kick a dog when it's down, right?

Because it's all his fault.

 

Honestly, I think it's just become a way of doing things if you're a Sox fan.

 

"Why are we playing like dead dogs?"

"Because Jerry Manuel left his footprints."

 

Nothing is his fault anymore, but that's just the way things are these days.

yeah, about where I am at on that

 

for better or worse he is gawn and the future is all I want to see

I have seen a lot worse managers.

 

Paul Richards the 2nd time - would he fall asleep by the 5th inning? Gutteridge anyone? Kessinger? Bevington?

 

JM got us a division title ( yes I know anyone could have managed that team) and one of the better records in our history

 

It's not the way all us do things is all I am saying. We could still keep on arguing about JM or we can move on. The Sox for me is much more about moving on.

 

Good article you wrote though and thanks.

 

good article, even though I'm pretty sure everyone reading it goes to games, if it's possible. Or else they wouldn't be on this site

Here at least. I've been showing it to people that don't believe yet.

JM did a decent job when he was here. It was just time to try something different. I don't believe his deserving of all the bashing that goes on. Just my 2 cents.
