  1. Then there was SBF, who as I recall wasn't really a troll, just a belligerent, abusive a-hole.
  2. I'll need to see results. My skepticism is due to what I've seen in all corporations, including the one I worked in: Whenever there is an announcement about radical improvements, greater investment, etc., the first (and generally only) thing ownership does is hire more administrators.
  3. Wow. With the amount of intellectual energy that has been expended on this board, obviously a number of us must have seen this coming ... anyone?
  4. Alas, most positive things about this team and its recent history are forced to make excessive use of the subjunctive.
  5. I think I may have found the object of my search!
  6. I'd rather spend time reading the trolls than trying to figure out which of the RS apologists is actually an intern in the FO.
  7. Well, you know RS players always get to start their golf season at the end of September.
  8. It's really hard to believe either Bloom or Breslow did not know exactly what they were getting into. You'd have to believe, say, that the topic of the budget never came up in the interview. That the names Betts or Ohtani were never mentioned.
  9. Absolutely! If the team is worth only 1.7 billion plus, can't take a hit like that.
  10. Whew. Snell and Montgomery gone! It's ridiculous to pay anyone more than the minimum.
  11. You need to work on your irony. But meanwhile, we can all celebrate that turner signed elsewhere! Another 13million for ownership.
  12. Greenwell at C was one of the GREAT moments in RS history! And the bastuds bunted on him.
  13. Why wouldn't I want to see them in Portland instead?
  14. No love for that DUI-toting racist f*ck Pinky Higgins?
  15. Yes. Yes. And yes.
  16. Maybe that part about comparing the recent histories of various clubs? And of course, I'll have the radio droning in the background like all NEnglanders this summer. But LAD is a far better organization with a far better product and anyone who denies that is delusional. But there's hope: LAD had to recover from the disastrous ownership of the McCourts (among the worst owners in pro-sports,--in a very very crowded field) just as the LAClippers had to recover from Donald Sterling. So there is hope (once or if the team is sold).
  17. If all you care about is the past, why not become a Yankees fan?
  18. Because they have better players and play better baseball than the RS? That's why I go. If you don't care about watching good baseball, then you might as well stick with fantasy sports.
  19. Yeah, the Dodgers suck. I mean who wants to go to Chavez Ravine to see Mookie or Ohtani or Yamamoto when they can go to Fenway and see videos of past RS greats?
  20. Another thing that discourages me is that every other team in the division has an easier schedule than the RS.
  21. Why are all positive things about this team expressed in the subjunctive?
  22. Sounds like this came straight from the FO.
  23. Seems to me they've done some things to make super-fans pore over their spread sheets, but absolutely nothing to make the average fan (the one who puts the pennies in the seats, as Steinbrenner used to say) want to bother going to a game or even checking the box scores.
  24. Exactly what baby steps forward have the RS taken in the last two years?
  25. Only bargains? As opposed to what they've been doing this year?
