Everyone acts like he thinks Theriot's been getting on base without a problem. I'm sure he knows that Theriot hasn't been getting on base, but just didn't keep up with the amount of times he's walked. I know that's complete conjecture, but so is the idea that he has been living in a cave in the clubhouse without any knowledge as to how much Theriot's been getting on base.
The attitude around here is fucked up. People are<i> finding </i>things to complain about. Nobody's happy about being a sub .500 ball club, but when we're combing through interviews to pick on the slightest fuck-up of a comment by the manager, it's pretty fucked up. I know it's not just us, it's the media and every other sports fan. All the knee jerk responses to every little thing is just getting tiresome in my eyes. What's wrong with waiting things out? I mean, we're on a streak where we've won 8 of 12 from mostly very good teams. Is it the worst thing in the world to see where things go in the next 2 months rather than picking apart every little thing that can be dug up?<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

I agree things have been quite negative for some time though, but I think people often use this as a place to vent, I know I do. I get pissed and spout off about the things I hate, but in general I'm actually pretty optimistic.
I also think Lou has been in-game managing like a crazy old man for a while now, but I don't think replacing him mid-season would do much good. I hope he isn't back next year though.
