Manuel Named All-Star Coach

Featured Replies

How loud do you think the boos will be?

 

:fyou JM

Why in the hell was he named one of the coaches?

They usually allow the hosting team's coach to be part of the coaching staff of his league's all star team.

I wonder if he got fired if he would still coach the game in street clothes?

 

Another thing, is anyone else happy that at least Dusty Baker won't be wearing a Cub uniform at the all-star game?

 

I'm not a fan of the National and American league jerseys, but that is definitely a positive.

I for one will be booing my ass off! :fyou JM

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

I'm waiting for the punchline.

Why would you boo one of our coaches? Show some class and pride in the organization when the entire baseball world will be watching.

I cannot cheer for a man that doesn't deserve to represent the White Sox where the "best of the best" are performing.

 

Do you want me to cheer for Sosa because he is representing the city of Chicago?

Not advocating booing, but Manuel has no business being named an AL coach. I can think of at least 10 that are more deserving than JM's lackadaisical, never-defending-his-players-ass. f*** him.

Ugh! What is happening to you people here?!?!?! :huh:

Tell me you don't think Manuel deserves to be named an AllStar coach. You too Vince. You both really think JM is deserving? Or is it the booing part that you both have problems with? And trust me on this..... JM will be hearing a smattering (prehaps more than that) of boo's when his name is announced.

Yeah, what CW said (and said... and said...)

I think a deafening silence would be more fitting. I'd love to hear crickets after they announce his name.

CK, do I think he deserves to be named a coach? No.

 

Is it traditional? Yes.

 

Is baseball a game of tradition? Yes.

 

Do I think it is utterly and totally classless to boo our manager at an All Star game? f*** yes,. my friend. totally classless.

 

There are 81 home games in whch one has to boo JM. Anyone can boo JM all they want then. But f*** no at the All Star game when the whole world is watching.

Yeah, what CW said (and said... and said...)

I was just quoting SoxRule - I didn't say a thing! ;)

Any Sox fan should put their negative feelings aside during the ame and when Sox players are announced CHEER. I know it's hard to do, but life is too short.

Amen to this quote

Is it traditional? Yes.

Tradition or not, the AllStar game is an exhibition of each team's best (debatable when fans are picking the starters) in each league. Having said that, if a guy like KC's Pena isn't named an AllStar coach and this goof JM is just out of tradition..... then tradition, my friend, is wrong.

I was just quoting SoxRule - I didn't say a thing! ;)

You said plenty ... and you said it very well.

It's got NOTHING to do with deserving. Half the players voted to the team DON'T deserve to be there.

 

So be ignorant and boo your own manager in your own park? Whatever.. Have fun.

I think a deafening silence would be more fitting. I'd love to hear crickets after they announce his name.

LMAO that would be awesome. Best suggestion I've heard in a long time. :lol:

He will call for PK to play.... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Come on, wasn't it last year or the year before when Torre had the Devil Ray's manager as an all-star coach? Being an all-star coach says nothing about how your team is doing.

 

What is embarrassing is we probably will only have one rep at our game, while the Cubs could have three or four.

I hope he's booed so loud that you can't even hear his name announced.

 

I think the NL will win it if the AL has dumbasses like Gardenhire and JM on the staff.

CK, do I think he deserves to be named a coach?  No.

 

Is it traditional? Yes.

cw, There's no better way than that to put it.

 

No class. Plain and simple.
