scioscia extension

an unnamed source (my cell phone) has confirmed to me that mike scioscia will sign a contract extension with the angel's locking him up until the 2018 season.

2018!! seriously! wow, nine effing years. how can you be that confident in someone, a manager to sign them through nine years... we'll have a new president then... come on. this is insane.

How many times is he gonna loose in the first round of the playoffs in those nine years. seriously.

let's see how confident the angels are in scioscia when he as to go against a rangers team with feliz, holland, crush, bourbon going to town on them california boy's

 

okay that was a little bit ridiculous, i got carried away on homer-ness

LA Times is saying 2015

Not a bad deal for the Angels, 1.75 really isn’t a lot and I don’t see him getting canned within the next few years.

regardless of how long

my vote is somewhere between the 2nd and 3rd choices. I don’t think he’s a terrible manager, but I think he is vastly overrated by Angels fans.
