Who thinks that?
-
Well, I would think it should be obvious. I used to joke about how some posters seemed to think Bloom talked JH & Co. into spending less and not trading any top prospects. I'm not so sure it's a joke anymore. The kicker, to me, was the report that DD nearly traded Betts and Price to LAD in the summer of 2019. Man, how that would have changed the whole narrative!!!
-
Just a minor omission.

They must not be hearing the chatter scaring everyone else away!

No one is doubting many of the Sox great teams were loaded with homegrown talent. How bringing that up has anything to do with the point only you know. You saying you've "always been big on the farm" has to be one of the funniest things ever said on this site. Hands down. Of course, you will come back that I'm overanalyzing what "always been big" means, but it was a very good joke.

The bout is Bell v notin. Do try to keep up.

Forget Devers?

Rock-em-sock-em.

The point was about you not Vince or Bloom. Yes, WOW!
-
I'm well aware of that fact. It was actually near .500 when Bloom was fired, but certainly the record after he left should count. For four years, all we heard was it's all about the W-L record, but now, we should believe we were really worse than our losing record indicated. Go figure.
-
You never get the point.
-
I never said anything about you saying 2021 did not count. You said this.... 22 games over 500 in 2021, which was the outlier for Bloom makes the overall record better than things really were. It didn’t cover up the two losing last in the Div teams though. Were you saying the actual and final W-L record does not reflect just how bad things were under Bloom, or not? It sounds to me like his W-L records wasn't bad enough for you, so you had to "make excuses" why we shouldn't look at just wins and losses, because 2021 made things look better than they really were. You still don't see the hypocrisy, do you? By the way, say I felt the 2022 team was better than it's record indicated due to a tough schedule was not whining or crying: it was stating facts. If you do think it's whining and crying, then so is your comments about 2021 skewing Bloom's record to make him look not as bad as you think he should.
-
Excuses are fine by you: I see.
-
Sounds like a bunch of excuses not allowed to be used for the next GM. Who needs "context?"
-
Too bad my Packers hired a coach with no head coaching experience without interviewing anyone else.
-
We know what you mean by your overused fork in the road comments. Your post was no where near related to what my comment was about, and I think you meant "So was..." not "So wasn't..."`but I don't want to be accused of "over analyzing your posts."
-
loom= Bloom. I was trying to type from my phone. For years you blased us for trying to say maybe the team was better than their record indicated- due to a tougher schedule/division, and that it's only about wins and losses. No excuses. Now, you try to say Bloom's record is not as good as the wins and losses indicated, because one big season skewed the results and made him look better than he really was. You don't see the concept being presented? If yes, you do understand, you won't answer to get point, but instead go off on some unrelated concept or something we got wrong. Try just responding to one actual point being made with an answer related to the point. Just once.
-
Great analogy. Does a fighter who does fight with one hand tied behind his back and loses a bad fighter?
-
Again, this has nothing to do with my point. You bashed us for adding context to the Wins and Losses, then do it yourself, by trying to say loom was worse than his record indicated because of ‘21. Just once. Try responding ding to that instead of defecting.
-
Huh?
-
your fork in the road and 3rd fork comments were stale a year ago.
-
No, like making excuse about how he was worse than what his final record indicates, when all along you are always about just wins and losses. Any context we add is “making excuses,” so if think your comment about the 2021 record is doing a similar thing to those you criticise
-
How is this even related to my point?
-
Lmao!
-
Never an answer- just deflections.
