... today

Not exactly a ringing endorsement.

Well,

EVERYONE gets fired SOMETIME.
And then they all meet in a unitarian church.

good grief...

i thought the ending to the sopranos was a pain in the ass (it was), but that nonsense last night was a hot mess.

You're silly.

That was a masterpiece of modern television. Your expectations were either completely misguided or completely unreasonable.

Just because you know how to read, doesn't mean you'll like the book.

my expectations...

that they air a decent finale were totally reasonable. instead, they aired a bloviating waste of time.

BOO!

yeah, I couldn't quite tell either

Praise for the finale is not uncommon. Right now, I would say I run into as much praise for the finale as hatred.

I'm firmly in the "Meh. It was OK." camp.

I don’t get the “They never answered ANYTHING!” people because they answered a lot if you were paying attention. Those reviews that asked “So, were they dead all along?” just didn’t pay attention during Christian Shepherd’s speech to Jack.

And the “Oh, what a great way to end their character’s stories!” people drive me nuts, because they’re ignoring the fact the Sideways Word was basically superfluous – it had no bearing on the Island timeline. None.

I loved the end piece with Jack, stumbling through the jungle to return to the bamboo, and seeing the plane escape as Vincent snuggled next to him and licked his face as he slowly slipped away, closing his eyes one last time. That was well done, even if it was predictable as a sunrise in the East. You knew that would be the last image of the show, but I still cried inside when it played out.

When you watch the Orioles every night, a beer after dinner turns into a six pack WAY too many times. Stacey

based on the last wired up wednesday I'd vote the O man

Did he really say 'points'?!?

even Juan Samuel knows that you want runs. And he knows how to get them…send everyone and hope they score!

Matt Wieters has a sustainably high BABIP

by CoachOfEarl on May 24, 2010 5:13 PM EDT up reply actions  

He definitely said points

but I think he was playing to the camera.

it's getting to the point where MacPhail might have stick with the Dave the entire season

If you fire him a few weeks from now, it’s going to raise all sorts of questions of why you sat on your hands so fucking long.

this is where i'm at...

HOWEVER, things are also probably at the point where another losing streak that reaches or approaches double digits finishes off old double d.

yeah

I think your right. Unless Dave does some terrible managing. Then you can clean house of any bad coaches at the end of the year with him. And you can then sell next year as the hopefully .500 year with a new manager because all the pressure will be off, and the young guys will be getting more experience.
