Concur, but it rare for a military commander to get fired for incompetence. ;)

What the 17 does it hurt? His guys aren't happy either. Lemonis shows he's the HC and has a some sort of set of balls. Cheese can call pitches. Foxhall isn't teaching these guys shit. Somebody has to be in charge. This idea we sit on our hands is why we're here now.
Does Foxhall even try to teach these kids on how to throw a breaking ball. Heck even Polk sat there when Davis I believe threw a breaking ball which got tagged and stated that there was no spin om the ball it just sat there waiting to get smacked. Polk stated that this kid has been throwing the same way all year. WTH Foxhall thats your job is to teach these kids.
Lemonis pretending he has a ballsack isn?t doing the program any favors, and you?re right cheese can call pitches. So can I. So can you. So can Donald Duck. And so can Goofy. We?re not in the teaching stage of the season, we?re in the execution part. Firing Fox doesn?t do a damn thing to change the outlook of the season or the trajectory of the program. The season is over and the sooner everyone realizes that the better.
At this point it really doesn't hurt to fire Foxhall because we know he is shit and it is going to continue to be shit the rest of the year if he is still running the pitching staff.
If we can get someone to manage the staff better and pull pitchers sooner that in and of itself will lead to improvement.
So bringing someone else in might work and it might not- but keeping Foxhall won't work so I'm absolutely willing to try someone else. Some of our fans have to get this idea out of their heads that bringing someone else in midseason won't help anything. Last time we did something like that it worked out quite well with Henderson.
A former player posted on the other board about his discussions yesterday with people close to the baseball program. The big thing he mentioned was that there isn’t any talk of “patience”. He touched on approach at the plate a little bit.
Sounds like most everyone is on the same page.
What has Gautreau and Cheesebrough done to keep their jobs? We suck at every aspect of baseball.
I would think so, the stadium was built with Dynasty in mind. These dudes are taking us back to 2008. Can't have that.
These are not close, competitive games. Even you spend the entire day grilling and chitchatting, you still notice 26-3.
Thanks for posting this
If Dohm starts today and gets the W, that would save Fox.
For the first time in my life, I may root against that outcome, because Fox needs to go.
As Jackie Wayne used to say, it’s hard to reverse a train that is going downhill
