Even the "magic" of Cooper seems like ancient history. And the magic of Herm Schneider, keeping players healthier. Now we're just stuck with Benetti's attempts to be funnier than he really is and chummier with a former professional athlete in Stone than he has earned the right to be.

To be honest though, it's somewhat refreshing to feel something different than shame and indifference which have dominated over the past 10 years. If we sell watch for Mark Cuban. He put a 1.3 billion bid on the cubs before the rickettes pulled it off. Hed love the challenge of chicago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herm is one of the most overrated guys in the business. His magic has faded, just like Coop's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the dispassionate reality of the situation and has been for a while. Once in a while we get thrown a bone and we all salivate thinking things have changed but we never get thrown continuance bones. Sustained success ? Please right now all the talk is just blah blah ,blah blah blah,blah, blah blah blah. I think you just came up with a new marketing phrase for the next Brooks Boyer...that's GOOD. Our Milk Bone dog biscuits get gobbled up by the rabid dog (think To Kill a Mockingbird) down the street before our puppy can even reach them.

fathom Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Cuban is never going to happen, especially after the HR issues with the Mavericks. He's lucky the NBA didn't make him sell the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
