  1. It isn't 2013 yet!
  2. I agree they over exposed the hiring process making BC look foolish in the process. How does that help anything?
  3. Whether Valentine is the next mgr or not is still be decided. What just happened is more important Lucchino et al just publically castrated their General Mgr.
  4. BC's creds with his peers just suffered a body blow. There is an old saying " Never talk to the monkey when the organ grinder is in the room."
  5. Schilling made the point that the team whose openning day rotation makes the most starts during the course of the year tends to win the division. The point is it is all about injuries. Assuming that all five starters magically go the year without missing a turn it's two games or less than one per starter. Injuries are the overriding factor.
  6. Can't say I am unhappy about the Cubs not the Red Sox getting Sveum. But the whole affair makes Cherington look foolish and inept.
  7. still bigger! and you didn't dispute the other points. Just saying that while I blame the FO for being screwed up can't blame them for Paps leaving when he clearly wanted to leave.
  8. I for one see no useful role for these sideline reporters in any sport male or female. For some reason the networks including NESN feel this need to cut away from the game so some sideline reporter can interject some nonsense like what there is to eat at some ball park that I'm never going to visit. I want to watch baseball not eye candy.
  9. Dale Sveum certainly has the above: neither secret formula nor any rare skill set. Wasn't he ther guy who lost track of the number of outs during the time he coached third?
  10. Wonder if we will see her in Chicago or WGN
  11. I was joking.! I guess if you have to explain a joke it isn't funny. I guess I have no future as gag writer. I'll have to go back to my day job teaching statistics and theoretical mathematicsl (just kidding)
  12. Actuallyto grammatically correct SVEUM is the pluperfect past subjective of the verb SWIM.
  13. Cherington: "Do you know how to use a computer?" Sveum: "Nope. Never owned one. I just take orders from my bosses and wave people home a lot" Definitely an ID-ten-T error message waiting! Heh ? Pumps
  14. Actually that's good advice for anyone in a leadership position. Not to be partisan, but isn't that the objective of everyone who currently holds elective office:D
  15. I for one would prefer not to think about John Lackey until July 2013.
  16. Amaro made the deal but it was the owner who killed it. Pay back is a bitch!
  17. We had "sit and spit" so now we can "Sink or Sveun"
  18. You sure he didn't retire in 2010?
