He may have been a great manager at one time, but it was aa long time ago. He's lost it. He's done. He needs to retire to Margaritaville, as if he hasn't already done so in his mind. He's lost control of the ship.
Two years ago, I loved Lou, but this isn't the same guy. Time to let go.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I think it's incredibly difficult for a person's state of mind to change as dramatically as you are stating in the course of two years. I think the only reason you think he's lost it is because the Cubs are 24-29. You're reacting to the results and finding reasons to placate Lou after the matter. You're seeing the effect, and making generalized comments based on his age as the cause.
He's doing the same things this year that he did in 2008. The only difference is his players played better for him then.
