  1. I haven't seen any evidence that the owners are forcing this move and I don't think anyone should assume that they are. However... You are right... To get to the heart of any problem... You gotta go right to the top because they hire the people who hire the people. From an outsider... My guess is that 4 90 loss seasons are forcing this move and even that could be wrong. There is a possibility that the reason for this move is... Ummm.... nothing any of us have thought of. Very few Managers last with a team as long as Gardy did. It's the nature of the beast and I'm sure everybody involved knows this.
  2. My guess... Would be... If a new manager is coming in... He will want to hire his own coaching staff... Therefore the entire staff must go.
  3. I voted no... I used the same method that I use for filling out my March Madness brackets. I wait until the games are over and fill in the winners to my bracket.
  4. If I was living in L.A. making big Money. I'm sure I would enjoy the weather and the things to do and hanging with Glunn. But... I'm sure I would still be capable of tweeting. "I miss North Dakota and Northern Minnesota!!!!!" Because I would miss it. It wouldn't mean that I hate L.A. If we flip out over tweets... They will stop tweeting. Contact with players and Genuine thoughts from players will vanish. We need to stop searching for things to be angry about. Let people be who they be.
  5. First off... Thanks Ron for all the years of service. You were one of us... Same team I belong to... Same Goals... Same Wishes and Hopes... Congrats on all your successes... Thanks for all your efforts... Good luck in the future.. I'm sure you'll get a fresh start somewhere if you want it. 2nd off... It was time... We need a fresh everything.... I'm sad for Ron yet... Still more optimistic now then I am with Ron. 3rd Off... I have no specific names on who I'd like the next manager to be. I just know the type... I want an out of the box guy who will know how to use an entire 25 man roster and know now to rotate Santana and Escobar so we get the most out of everyone... A Joe Maddon type is what I'd like to see. 4th Off... If you can't find that guy... I'll take the job. Contact me day or night... It's OK.
  6. Escobar was also pretty good... I won't assume regression. I have no problem with both of these guys in the starting lineup in 2015.
  7. Not in the Bedroom... I can tolerate a lot... But that... In the bed room... I gotta draw the line.
  8. That's awesome... If you can put Alfred E. On it tastefully... It'll be my new Avatar.
  9. Game two to dad... 5 hands played... He's on a roll... I feel like he's the Tigers and I'm Tulane University.
  10. Game one to dad... I was 5 points away... When he won a hand after about 3 draws for 70 point win. On to game two.
  11. Dad... Is setting up the card table... That didn't take long... I walk in the door... Give him a hug and he turns around and gets the card table... Looks like I'm gonna have to concentrate on Gin. Dad remembers every card that is played so I gotta try and match that or lose badly. He rolls his eyes when I discard an 8 after he picked up an 8 around 10 cards ago.
  12. Alright... Safe and Sound... Heard Kinsler hit the ball out on the radio. If Gibson can prevent more damage. We can still give KC a shot.
  13. I'm leaving right now to hang out and watch Vikings with my Dad. It's about an hour drive. I'm hoping to game thread a little while there but Dad will probably want to play cards. If I don't get to do much game threading today... It's been a pleasure.
  14. Looks like I missed quite an offensive Game 161... Bring on 162. BTW... We are doing our part... Stupid Royals... Try to play along.
  15. Credit? I live life without credit!
  16. Alice... The Mad Hatter and the March Hare were also at the party.
  17. Just one cup of coffee today.
  18. It gives people something to read while sitting in the traffic jam.
  19. I thought he wore it well. And... And... He only tripped on it twice.
  20. That's true... But don't blame me... According to the script... You said it.
  21. ChiTown is taking a bath... There is knock on the door. Blind Man: Hey... It's the Blind Man... Can I come in? ChiTown thinks about this... Did he say blind? ChiTown: Blind Man? Blind Man: Yes Blind Man.... I'm in a hurry... Can I come in? ChiTown: As long as your a Blind Man... Ok I guess Blind Man walks In and says: Oh My... Hubba Hubba... I'm just gonna install these blinds in your window.
  22. Yeah... I'm really not sure how Vargas wasn't ranked higher on the prospect list. He hits the ball too hard to not be ranked higher.
  23. Sunscreen? If I remember right... You were wearing a sweater.
  24. When I finally Kicked the Habit... The Nun was pissed off!!!
  25. If I was Father Guido Sarducci... Let me think about that.... Ok... For starters... My Family would be wondering where I got that accent while growing up in Northern Minnesota,
