    These game threads always end up as bash threads. I hope Mess gets paid for this...

    It must be so cool to have the only rose colored telescope. Try disassociating emotion when you read my post. I never said or implied it was hopeless. I said and implied that mgmt made cascading errors in judgment and player evaluation as well as deal strategy and execution.

    As for the term credibility....I do no think it means what you think it means.

    The ability to level criticism and apply objectivism to ones favorite sport/team is the highest level of fandom.

    _______________________________

    Sounds okay, seems to make sense......but I know something you do not know......
    I can criticize, ridicule and bash my favorite team with the best of them....
    In fact, there have been a couple times, a few years way back...NOT RECENTLY, where I would think and SAY things like: "I hope they keep losing so they HAVE TO make some kind of changes to try and get better"......

    How does THAT grab you?

    I know there are quite a few Yankee fans with low expectations for this team and management but I'm not there yet.....stay tuned, you'll hear me.

    I could be wrong (though that would be VERY unlikely) but I thought this was already covered.
