However, we still didn't really do anything special in conference. We made a CWS run, which is always nice. But, I don't think we should allow one tournament performance speak for the entire tenure.

This makes no god damn sense whatsoever. Sure, we haven't had an entire season with only 5 or so loses. We either run the table in the OOC, or we get hot during conference play.

What the frick does it matter if we get to the tournament? Especially if we fricking host. ESPECIALLY if we win 50 fricking games and go to the National Championship Series. Saying, "but we didn't really do this or that" during that season doesn't diminish what we accomplished.

But when you look at it, I think it's fair to say that we have what has proven to be an average staff.

L-O-Motherfricking-L

So because we are having an extremely bad year, our coaching staff is mediocre? I guess you forgot that Butch Thompson just won the assistant coach of the year last year, like you forgot about us winning 50 games.

Just because Cohen doesn't run the baseball team the way most people would like to see it ran, people have been waiting on this year just so they could say I told you so. I include myself in the part about not doing it how I would, but I sure as hell am not about to say he is a mediocre coach. That is ridiculous. He was ahead of the game when the bats cooled down, but he gets no credit for that. It was just him playing stupid little small ball.

You are taking one season and using it to speak for 7 years. We've been dead last in the division for almost half of his tenure, and missed the tournament in more than half.

You won't hear me complain about Butch. In fact, if you read a few posts up, I as much as said that Butch has made us look a lot better than we have been.

I think they will figure it out, and I think the ball has hurt. We definitely were building around the old ball. I just hope he didn't wait too late to change.
