6-2 rangers

If the rangers work the count against Price, i think they’ve got a good shot to win, even against Price.

Yeah

We’re like the perfect team for Price to be facing, really.

He's kind of like Billy Martin to me.

Turn around a team quick, and then rub people the wrong way. Big difference was Martin managed before there was such a large discrepancy b/w players and manager’s salaries.

Buck had to deal w/ the biggest.

Buck

Most of his issues were more off the field than in-game.

by Adam J. Morris on Jul 4, 2009 7:11 PM CDT up reply actions  

I find it interesting

That one of the knocks on Buck was he never wanted to play young players… and we go out and hire Wash, and we still have the same exact problem.

I guess Buck might’ve been a little bit better a strategist than Ron, but overall I’m starting to think they’re not all that much different in their ability to do their jobs… Buck was kind of a sabotage-your-own-clubhouse type, and while Ron’s popular in the clubhouse, he just doesn’t know what he’s doing.

Oh, of course he was

He stayed after Wednesday night and signed for every fan. When he got to me, I had the photo of him and me from Opening Day. So, obviously, he knew I was different from the other fans waiting (mostly I-Cubs fans or just autograph hounds). He asked me when the photo was taken and such. As he handed me back my pen, he said, “Now, I promise you I’m going to start hitting better than I have been. I’m making that promise to you.” :)

Girlfriend slams her finger in the window pretty hard and is very upset...

meanwhile, my daughter doesn’t want to sleep and is crying in the crib. I’m consoling 2 women in 2 different rooms.

Thank goodness the Rangers are winning. God bless the USA!
