    Remember kids, no successful person was 100% popular and there was always that one pesky dentist that didn't agree with the other 9.

    If Cohen really would "spend whatever it takes" to get Stearns is he really going to be patient and wait out the year just to refuse paying a piddling amount of compensation to the Brewers. Maybe he's just weird like that. Or maybe they're already in discussions over it. Maybe Stearns is pissed at MA for keeping him on a leash and is holding a grudge, refusing to allow the Brewers to benefit from his departure. Who knows any of the reasons? Maybe what is being reported is the simple truth but the fact remains we may never know if there are inflamed feelings on either side over the last couple years.

    But why? It's not his job. Friendship doesn't extend to betraying your own employer to help the friend's employer that is in direct competition with your employer. That stuff would be a career killing move.
  5. SeaBass
    You could be right about this. Or like I stated earlier it could be so the team in effect trades him to a team for some type of compensation. I'm not convinced the Mets are the likely suitors though. They seem to be getting along just fine. The Mets would have the leading odds though if this was a betting subject in Vegas.

    I guess that qualifies as an... unlikely conspiracy theory. I really doubt Stearns had the time or ability to run two franchises at the same time.

    Clearly the reactions at the time prompted some type of comment to appease pressure from the outside. I don't recall his exact comments but he admitted he underestimated the reactions to the trade both within the organization and outside of it and he wished he had handled it better. But in the rest of his comments there was nothing there that said to me that he felt the trade was a mistake. Again I'm just going from memory.
  8. SeaBass
    That could easily be true. I only bring up the Mets because he had been denied to interview with them. I think it's now confirmed that Stearns wants to take control of his career path without someone over him having the power to put limits on that. Stearns may choose to remain an independent advisor, with the Brewers or other teams, until a job opening he finds attractive opens up. Just because he'll be a "free agent" doesn't mean he'll like what's available at the time.

    Who says the Hader trade was a mistake though? Fans? Hader was pitching awful at the time. No, I don't think anything regarding Hader has anything to do with this move. It's been several years in the making since the first time the Mets asked to interview him and were denied.

    Sure that's possible, seems like long meandering way to let a guy out of his contract though. Perhaps it's all to massage PR for the common fan.
  11. SeaBass
    I'm not convinced he's 100% going to the Mets, it's certainly a possibility. He will be a free agent after this season and would potentially have some nice options depending on situations around the league. Or maybe it is the Mets and this advisory role is the first step to a trade.
  12. SeaBass
    I very much doubt that. If MA were firing Stearns he'd be gone instead of remaining as an advisor.
  13. SeaBass
    That settles that and as expected, despite some doubts and against some posters wishes, Matt Arnold will take over. Stearns won't be in charge during a lame duck year.. I don't see this as a bad thing whatsoever. My impression has always been that Arnold was Stearns' right hand man and exactly as involved with the success of the team as Stearns, Stearns just had final say so. Arnold will likely have slight differences but should be a solid executive.

    The way this NFL season is playing out the Packers probably shutout the Bills next week. Purple? Nah.
  15. SeaBass
    Maybe it's time to start devaluing defensive picks in early rounds. Whatcha think Gute?
  16. SeaBass
    Welp it was fun thinking they had a chance. Now Washington just needs to not have a dumb blunder to win.
  17. SeaBass
    They've given the defense a reason to believe they can win. Just gotta go out there and take it.
  18. SeaBass
    The play was fine, catch the damn ball and it's a 1st down.
  19. SeaBass
    Yay we're over 100 yards!
  20. SeaBass
    We can't hold an offensive possession long enough to keep the defense fresh.
  21. SeaBass
    96 total yards. What an embarrassment.
  22. SeaBass
    I have relaxed. I have no emotional attachment to this game or team right now.
  23. SeaBass
    Off topic but I don't understand how the Bucs are down 14-0 vs. Carolina. That team has the talent even with their injury problems.
  24. SeaBass
    So is the offense trash because they have a dearth of WR talent or does it go deeper than that? I have felt for the most part that the lack of WR talent is too easy to point to and there must be other factors. The O-line play has been less than great but is that because defenses just don't fear the passing game? I'm starting to come around to the WR situation is the big problem. If so that's on the front office big time, brining Rodgers back on a $50M contract and give him nowhere to throw. Not a mind-blowing statement but I've really been hesitant to pin everything on the WR group.
  25. SeaBass
    The call bothered me because anecdotally I don't feel like illegal touching is called very often. That said it doesn't overly bother me it was called because it was clearly a correct call.
