    The Krafts

    I think we largely agree. I was just taken a back a bit by that reported questioning of his integrity. Big ego, demanding, even arrogant would seem fair game to me in describing Bill honestly to one of the other owners considering hiring him. Integrity feels like a bridge too far. But I agree...

    The Krafts

    But if it were verified, would you view Kraft calling Bill untrustworthy just a salty ego thing? Seems like that would veer a little further towards a smear. I don’t disagree that believing Wickersham lock, stock, and barrel would be a major change of course around here. But combining this with...

    Eliot Wolf will be in charge of the personnel department,

    All standard, boilerplate, liars poker season stuff. I still fully expect them to take Maye or Daniels at no. 3.

    The Krafts

    This pretty much sums up where I am, at least terms of his personal life/character. The orchids of Asia thing was phenomenally stupid, and showed terrible judgment. Beyond that, who he’s dating or socializing with means absolutely nothing to me. I am souring on him a bit over these pitiful...

    What is next for BB?

    It would’ve been a somewhat bold move to replace Siriani, but not out of character for Lurie. He pulled the trigger on Pederson just 3 years after he won the Super Bowl. I think he’ll get there soon, but touché, agree to disagree/see how it works out. Don’t disagree at all with your summary of...

    What is next for BB?

    Probably fair on Siriani, though I think he’s a clown whose limitations were on full display last year. But Hardo? He’s got more than enough of a track record of falling short, with arguably no worse than the second best QB in the league, to justify a change. Hell, he probably should’ve been...

    What is next for BB?

    Absolutely. And that belies the notion that teams with good, contending rosters aren’t, or shouldn’t be looking for a coaching upgrade to break through and win a title. BB would be a huge step up over McCarthy, Hardo, and Siriani. To name three. Beyond that, if the Krafts were trashing him...

    2024 Masters

    Amen. He's been grinding impressively the last 2 days, particularly in these conditions.

    The Juice Expires (OJ Dead at 76)

    I was on the fence as far him going to hell, but this seals it.

    2024 Masters

    Yeah, the forecast definitely seems much less dire than it did last night. They're going to get way more golf in today than than it looked like they would. Agree, that should definitely help him get through tomorrow in better shape physically. I root hard for him, so hopefully his game is...

    2024 Masters

    Circling back to Tiger, if the weather today leads to having to play 27 or 36 tomorrow, hard not see him withdrawing. That much walking, on that course, will be murder on his damaged legs.

    MLB Mount Rushmore

    Ruth Robinson Cobb Mays. It's killing me to not have a (pure)pitcher on there, but those are the 4 that jump to mind for me.

    Dugger WITH AN E is back With the Pats (4 years 58M)

    Yeah, this feels an overpay to a nice player, at a somewhat fungible position. Particularly with cheaper in house candidates available to provide most of what he does.

    First time visit to Fenway

    @cymru sox , Another one to consider, if you're into craft brews, or want to sample some pretty good New England IPAs for the first time. Sounds like a good pre or post game hang. https://www.boston.com/food/beer/2024/03/14/mighty-squirrel-brewing-fenway-location-opening/

    I recommend Cornwalls. Try to get there by 6.

    That was then: Celebrating what was

    Watched it this morning. Outstanding. So many great stories and insights. And he’s very funny and engaging as well. Every time I read or see something about Ernie, I’m reminded how ridiculous it is that so few, if any other, teams employ someone like him. At least that I’ve ever heard about. He...

    Larry Lucchino dead at 78

    Hahaha. Truth. Larry was nothing if not Uber-combative.

    Everybody hurts sometimes: The latest injuries

    That sounds both ominous, and ass backwards in terms of managing whatever is going on.

    Rest in Peace, DaveRoberts'Shoes

    Thanks for sharing that amazing post Dan. My condolences to you and your family. I never had the pleasure of meeting Chris, but always enjoyed his posts and insights here. He sure seems to have been a really great guy.
