Time to Collect for a GRB Banner?

[JL21]

If flying another banner means a trip to the WS next year like it did last time, I'm all for it

I'd settle for another typo in a Faction ad in the RFT.

I'm not seeing the hate for TLR either. Maybe I've seen too much in the past that this pales in comparison.

I don't think he's done a horrible job this year. In fact, I'm amazed that through the first week of September they even had a shot at the playoffs, albeit because the Central sucks so much.

Honestly, I haven't seen any irrational TLR-bashing. I've seen a lot of criticism, but with a team in this situation, it's necessary to examine everything, including Tony's decisions and leadership. And honestly, I'm not sure if it's a good fit anymore.

I agree with you but I feel when a team is doing poorly fans start examining every single little move a little too closely. Especially considering when a team is doing bad, more than likely the moves dont turn out well even if they were the right move for the situation. Additionally when you inspect every single move yet dont know every single behind the scene situation its an incomplete judgement. That said i default to TLR's move as long as I see a logical explanation. Like if he walks a righty to bring in a lefty to face a lefty (who has poor LH splits) and the player gets the hit, I dont kill him. The reasoning was there, whether I would have made the move or not.

However in terms of your other points about the current administration getting a little warn out that is possible. However I would let the people involved to make their own decisions. If they want out, they can leave. If they want to stay, I imagine the Cards will continue to battle, just as they did this season.

I think fans were saying the same things about TLR after 03.

For me, the bottom line with LaRussa is the record. That's all that matters. 90% of managing involves things we can't see. Leadership, preperation, etc...

But he does some weird stuff in game and in his lineup construction at times, and it's hard to like him sometimes when he is doing that.
