He also has the opportunity to collect the 90th loss this season before he gets his 30th win. All around good stuff 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of the old joke… “you drop an accordion, a recorder, and an alto sax out of a 20th story window.

This team should lose 100, it’s gonna lose 120. At some point you do have to limit the damage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the things I’ve seen since the ASB have been so stupid, you actually think he’s losing on purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 I truly don't think anyone that is worth anything would take the job. I don't care about the "well there are only 30 jobs out there" argument. These guys aren't total idiots (Pedro may be the exception) and as we will see with Grifol, he'll NEVER get a shot to manage again. Nor should he, but anyone who takes this job is in for a world of hurt the next 2+ years, just like Pedro has gone through...the only candidates you're getting are individuals who only care about the paycheck (and it won't be much) or are totally unqualified for the job (If you Getz what I'm saying) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joejoesox Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Perhaps Jerry looked at other teams who've went through incredible stretches of losing such as Pittsburgh, Baltimore, Oakland, Detroit and felt the backlash wouldn't be that bad Chicago (and it's media market) aren't any of those cities Check out twitter, this team is getting absolutely destroyed. Has a major media market ever dealt with anything like this before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that too I just think at this point it’s symbolic to nobody, it is so far past the point of needing to fire him. Handing the team to another person to lose 90 percent of the next two months kinda sucks! I don’t care either way, like I indicated the ship is going down regardless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
