People will believe what they want to believe regardless of facts or evidence presented to them. A study was done on that notion and I believe it...
[MEDIA] Smh...this is SO stupid. You can publish anything and people will buy it. What a joke.

I really like that we gave Springer 1M over the midway point PLUS extra cash for incentives. Hopefully that has a beneficial affect on his...
Agree. Definitely not ideal, but I think the team *could* have made it work. Especially with how the team is projected for 2020 and that it was...
Good news is avoiding arbitration...very sticky process, and great news is we’re getting that 2020 ring!
By not caring about outside noise or what other people think, which, ironically, was Luhnows M.O. during his entire tenure. Luhnow was both...
Luhnow is a martyr. I’d rock his jersey and I’d be just as frustrated as him if I were in his shoes. League ordered his firing to cover up the...

McCann would be an interesting hire...
Yup. Luhnow was the (often lazily-associated) face of so many negative PR stunts. It was too convenient to affix him to the problems. His biggest...
I know. Not a lifetime ban (or expulsion), but a year-long suspension...
Huh? Both were suspended and *not* banned. Suspension I’m sure would have to be served during tenure of new team...what are you talking about?
So...I think Manfred partially orchestrated this. He underhandedly gave Crane the chance to separate himself from the fiasco by letting him fire...
