When you lose to the worst team in the league, you become the worst team in the league.
Well, Shildt. Red Birds need a Skipper.
The Cardinals needed to make this move as much, if not more, than Vegas needed to move on from their coach. Who should the Cardinals hire? This is always a conundrum at the professional level. Put your chips in the middle on a potential wunderkind, a seasoned coach (bench, batting, pitching, 1st or 3rd base, etc), or a re-tread manager? In every sport, these are the options, the NFL and NBA (not so much NHL and MLB) also add a fourth tier “the exciting college coach” with mixed results.
With Great Power, Comes Government Tyranny
The idea that “we the people” have responsibility over our own destiny, is being replaced by the notion that Government should be responsible for our equal misery.
Dolphins’ Demerits: Week V @ Bucs
They play Jacksonville. That provides at least a modicum of hope. Seeing as the Dolphins are Opher London however, I won’t be betting on them. By year three of rebuild, progress should be seen, instead we’re witnessing regression. That should be placed on the shoulders of both the GM and coach. They are the ones that decided the talent they assembled could produce better results than the 10 win team from last year, they have failed. Unfortunately the Phins don’t get a bye week after London as is usually the custom. I fear this means more games with Flores at the helm. If Ross hasn’t moved on from him yet, he probably has until the week 14 bye to salvage his job. What will it take? They have 8 games remaining before the bye, will 4-4 save his job? 6-2? If they enter the bye week above .500 (they would have to go at least 6-2 to accomplish that), maybe you let him finish the season. But baring a playoff appearance, I would sever ties with him and Grier.
Cardinals @ Dodgers; W1LDCARD Recap
Some will say “congratulate the Birds, they fought hard” and though that is true, with achievement comes expectation. Though this team was left for dead only one month ago, they awakened to go on a run not seen in over 100 years in baseball. Having done that, going out with a whimper after one game was anticlimactic.
