Yeah, it's be like an office manager standing up to the CEO and Board of Directors. They need someone who can follow their plan. I think some posters are either out of touch with reality or think the Sox are "sports entertainment" like the WWE.
Concussion, really? It was so bad that he stayed late to talk to the press and call Lucic a POS. Miller is a crybaby. He didn't have a concussion. If Buffalo had a problem with it, they should have stepped up that game.
Managing skills and 3rd base coaching skills don't overlap all that much. A great 3rd base coach could be a horrible manager. A great manager could be a horrible 3rd base coach.

Funny because I bet Sveum could make all the posters here look like mental midgets when it comes to baseball.
Honestly, I enjoyed GoBruins2010-2011 more than some of the newer posters.
FYI, Valentine would be the ultimate lackey. No thanks.
I'd rather Alomar or Pena, but am ok with Sveum. Managing isn't the same as coaching 3rd. Dale has great leadership abilities.
Idk, there are a ton of people on here who haven't been through bad times. This year sucked, but it was better than some of the 90's teams. 2001 team was worse too.
Deleting a post just because the topic has been beaten to death for 3 years is silly. It's the offseason. Once ST comes, Drew will be a distant memory and no one will care.
Posts only get banned if they're offensive or spam.
Don't worry guys. I just simmed the 2012 season with MVP 04 for Xbox and the Sox beat the Cubs 4-1 in the WS.
Buehrle won the CY and had a dominant postseason. Looks like we need Scott Williamson to close this year! (I know some posters rag in the 03 bullpen, but Williamson/Embre/Timlin had a good postseason if I remember correctly.)
