No doubt, in fact, I commend him for saying it. I continue to be amazed at how this board keeps defending the shitastic play of Soriano. We're actually criticizing Brenley for telling the truth about a player? Really?
I hated Brenley at first, but as time goe on, I find myself agreeing with him more and more. He still annoys me, but not because he's honest. That part I like.

Last I checked, no one has ever defended Soriano for anything. It's just Brenly is showing up Lou and the organization and feeding a couple of radio douchebags red meat on a platter. He hasn't said anything that hasn't been said before, and the only people he benefited are the local media douchebags, and possibly himself when he is gone from the TV booth soon. We will still be stuck with Soriano when Brenly is long gone.

OK, defend is the qrong word. Apparently it's wrong to criticize Soriano or boo Soriano or say anything negative about Soriano ever, despite the fact that he can't catch a flyball or hit anything that isn't straight and down the middle.
When I hear fans booing him, I think, "Wow, Soriano better get his shit together if he wants to booing to stop." You guys think, "Wow, Cub fans are stupid."
When I hear broadcasters criticizing Soriano, I think "Wow, Brenley's right. Soriano is selfish." You guys think, "Wow, Brenley's an asshole for telling the truth."
I don't get it. At what point does Soriano become cuplable?

I heart Brenly. And Tommy, last year i had several meltdowns about how bad Soriano is and about 12teen people jumped all over me to defend him. So defend is the right word.

That just isn't right. Implying that people around here go out of their way to defend Soriano of all people couldn't be farther than the truth. Some of us just accept that he isn't worth the money (and never was) and are resigned to the fact that we are stuck with him more easily than others. The man is 34 years old, so pretending that someone can change all of his bad habits at this point in his career is unrealistic, no matter how much he pisses you off. And believe me, his antics piss me off. No one is making excuses for him.
