Comments on: Milton Bradley, The Saga Continues…. http://firedustybaker2.wordpress.com/2009/06/27/milton-bradley-the-saga-continues/ Get us a real general manager!

My whole thing with Gregg is that I know about the times he's looked horrible - the problem is there are plenty of other times he's looked pretty good and those seem to get forgotten. As you say, you can find stats to back up either opinion... I just think that the guy has gotten a bum rap. Time will tell, since it doesn't look like he's pitched himself out of the role yet. Frankly, if we *did* take it as a given that Gregg were to be fired (a big IF) I'd prefer Guzman to be the one to take over, as he's shown the most consistent stuff. Of course, he's hurt. Plan C? Glad to see Big Z coming through where Koyie Hill, Alfonso Soriano, and Ryan Theriot can't, today. I go away for a week on business and I get a civilized response from JimmyD.

I believe Lou said he tried smoking weed once but "it didn't do anything for him"...then I heard (on the radio) Andrew Siciliano (I think it was him, subbing for Jim Rome) suggest that a tv good show would be Ozzie, Lou, a bong and some conversation....hell, I'd pay to see that! Another good outing by Randy Wells today, Thank You sir. I agree with Ozzie too and don’t mind saying it.

Excellent post! I wonder if the sheep talks too. "Like let's go cubbies!" "What's the score again?" "We are the loveable losers". On another note has anybody been hearing some of the comments Guillen has been saying about Wrigley Field and Larry Rothschild? This shit is priceless. I know a lot of Cub fans hate him however I'm not one that does. I think he just speaks his mind. In case you haven't heard any of this read these articles. http://www.suntimes.com/sports/baseball/whitesox/1646468,CST-SPT-soxnt01.article http://www.suntimes.com/sports/baseball/whitesox/1644892,CST-SPT-ssep30.article I hate having to saying I agree with him but I do. Especially what he had to say about Rothschild. He is more worried about finding a snitch then worrying about his shitty bullpen. Robert. Excellent post!

"I think we've forgotten how to hit, especially with men on base," said manager Lou Piniella, whose team was 0 for 5 with runners in scoring position.

Landscaping my little place on Madison's eastside has kept me sane, instead of wasting my time watching this pathetic collection of yahoos. Moe Hendry has to go. Great fucking move douche-signing Uncle Miltie. I do admit I thought this ass clown would light a fire under these rudderless assholes. My bad! Lou has to go. He obviously doesn't give a flying fuck whether this team wins or loses. Is there anybody out there who has the cajones to manage this team the way it should be? Hey Zell, you useless fuck. Sell the goddamn team!!! There, I feel better! One of the great things about having bought a house late last year is that I’ve found so much to do, outside and in.
