Gosh, if we could only be so lucky!

Its a shame a kid who has played hard his entire career at BC gets suspended by an inept egomaniac during his senior year.

Joe remained as manager for another 4 years.. the real story is that Joe was to be an interim manager and the Sox were going to hire Joe Torre but when the winning streak started they couldn't replace him... this is why I've said that if Bates does take Spaz out he should be replaced by Gallup as interim, he has HC experience and most likely no interest at his age in taking the job full time<br /><br />problem would be if he whacked Spaz after the blowout losses to UMd and Wake, names Martin as interim and the team rallys around him, beats ND and wins out<br /><br />thats why, in the clear light of a few days post our latest disaster loss, I can see that it make more sense to wait till the end of the season for a clean slate<br /><br />and i fully expect to be up in QQ yelling for Spaz to be fired at halftime on SatMosihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09326827971005824279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-65909980383486886632012-10-25T07:51:55.119-04:002012-10-25T07:51:55.119-04:00ATL

That's unfortunate .<br /><br />This will be seen by most as weakness by you, and that you lack decisiveness. People will, rightly, see you as a guy lacking stones. <br /><br />Please show us that you are executive material, and not some educator/bureaucrat who values process over action. Do not allow Spaz to taint you and inject doubt into your legacy before it even begins.<br /><br />The truth is that Spaz's continued lame duck status hurts BC football and BC as a whole. Just look at Spaz's pathetic comments today. He is blaming his own recruiting and bad luck for this year's failure. ESPN is now openly mocking Spaz with a headline sarcastically saying "Spaziani: 'I know what I am doing.'" Read: Not.<br /><br />There really is very little downside in removing Spaz as HC. There is big downside for you if you do not act soon. <br /><br />Act. <br /><br />Now.<br /><br />Sincerely,<br /><br />mod34bmod34bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18129365485893573618noreply@blogger.com
