Damn, I would have been pissed having to wait that long....
Were you able to leave the airport and do anything in the meantime ?

The initial delay was only 2 1/2 hours...plus, I didn't have anywhere to go. What really sucked is several planes were unable to deboard for almost 3-hours because all the games were filled.

They have just quit on the season. That is completely on management..Un real, I did not expect them to win the Central but I really did not think they would just quit playing, regardless of whos out there..

 

[Mr Tony]

and didnt the owner say both Dombrowski and Leyland are coming back next year?

Yep, amazingly enough. I wish he showed the same love for his Tigers he did his Wings.

He does, how do you think the players they DO have got here ?
He OVER PAID for them.

Do you remember BEFORE Pudge ?

Last I checked, Dombrowski and Leyland 's names were not on the active roster as players.

Got to blame the players, not the those that are NOT on the field.

When a company messes up you blame the managers. That's what they did for BP.

Okay better example, when the Lions went 0-16 they fired Marinelli and most of his staff, not the players, a lot of them are still there. Same case with Orioles and Diamondbacks this season.

 

[Jimbo]

Twins up 5-4 in the 7th.
Wh Sox 1-1 in the 6th
Tigers up 6-3 in the 7th
Jays up 1-0 in the 7th on MLB ******

However, they SHOULD have fired most of the players.
Will changing the manager make the scrubs playing for the Orioles hit and catch better ? NO

I like to say that I didn't get a bad grade in a class because I was a bad student, it was because I had a bad teacher.

Sounds about right .....

When was your last grade ?

several years ago. point is some teachers (aka coaches) are good and really care about helping their students (players) and some just don't care
