Manager Situation...
For those of you who think Ron Washington is in over his head... For those of you who think we need someone with skins on the wall to attract FAs or bring (more?) credibility to our franchise...For those of you who want to knee jerk from today's gut wrenching loss... Here's your chance.
Who would you like to see managing the Texas Rangers in 2009? (please limit your suggestions to viable candidates).

Mainly for the brown-nosing, but also because I disagree with about 96% of everything Adam says.
Ian Kinsler has finally earned the right to be the third of my co-favorite players.

I wonder if he would encourage BGL
to return to LSB.

just about anybody but Sunflower Sally.
Milly I have no choice but to nickname you "The Laborer".
Every time I see you on the mound you're laboring through the inning.
You sure as hell don't labor when you hear Dunkin Donuts is closing in
15 minutes, sat there with a chocolate eclair with 5 minutes to spare.

Meh, I vote Walbeck if Ron were to go.

This way he wouldn’t be the pitching coach
Josh Hamilton for David Price
Gerald Laird, Marlon Byrd, Eric Hurley for Phil Hughes
Vicente Padilla for Jonathon Niese
Frank Cantaspellahislastname, Eddie Guardado for Jess Todd
blow this shit up. i’ve had it.
That isn't close to enough for Hughes
and Josh Hamilton for David Price? No thanks.

it's close enough for Hughes.
...they’re getting a league-ready starting pitcher back in return, an everyday catcher for the short-term, and a Matsui replacement for their playoff run.

Why wouldn't they just get Matt Holiday instead?

milton bradley, millwood, and matt harrison for james shields?

For no particular reason other than resonance with times past. Good tactical manager, ego but not enough to detract from players, not subject to good ole’ boy or Royals academy syndrome, and can be diplomatic and political about real issues.

No One
just let the players decide who starts, that way if you suck then you wont play because the players actually want to win
