Good ... you can do a play by play for those of us that can neither listen nor watch! yay for wsnydes' play by play!!

Ftfy. Because that says much more to their credit of what they’ve done here than just leave.

Let’s stay on topic here. We aren’t discussion the state of college athletics and tuition costs here. I get how we jumped there but let’s reel it back to Wes Johnson please. If you want to discuss college athletics and tuition costs, I suggest you start a topic in the Sports Bar forum, Thanks.

Okay ... I've had my chicken, it's now pie time

I thought you were going to send that to me? What gives?

Sorry but I just have to chuckle a little as these comments obviously didn’t age very well …. thankfully

Perkins is awesome there. He would also make a good pitching coach

But that can't happen unless the Twins relieved them of their duties This isn't an apples to apples comparison here. Wes Johnson is leaving MLB, he's not leaving for another MLB team, and I don't think that can happen in season, either, because of MLB rules. But there is no rule stating you can't leave for elsewhere outside the MLB, whenever, for other reasons. If either Rocco or Buxton wanted to leave MLB for other opportunities, I'm sure they could, and I'm sure there'd be mixed emotions from the fans. The problem with this particular move, the job on the other side has requirements and needs and Wes needs to start there immediately. And maybe some haven't used the word evil, the rest they have. Some have resorted to name calling and those posts were removed. As this has been explained in regards to recruitment and the timing of that for colleges, no, I don't think LSU would hold the job open for him to wait. That's how it works. But I don't know that, and you don't know for certain they would, either. I think LSU made the offer as sweet as possible to get him to come now because their need was now. I don't think it was wrong or disrespectful or unprofessional or anything of the sort. It is what it is. And, honestly, I think it sucks. But I doubt it was easy.

Not to sidetrack the thread because that's a different discussion, but it doesn't make me question it at all ... because yes, there is a correlation

It's already been announced that Maki will take over

Thank you for this perspective ... it was mentioned earlier about recruiting and such ... this information makes sense about the timing

Yes ... it's what I'm going to have Along with rhubarb pie

Because of his management skills, right?

@rwilfong86 … I’m still waiting … ??? ?

WOOOOHOOOOO! CHICKEN, CHICKEN, RHUBARB PIE!

He gave us a nice strike out an inning or so ago, too

Whoooo … that was some pitch

Okay, bring on the splinker!

So would I. But it’s just a bit too far to travel when I work tomorrow

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please, FO, sign Correa long term! PLEASE, I BESEECH THEE! ??

? ? ? ?

Sorry, but I think the song isn’t a good song, from a musical standpoint. Would rather hear ‘America, the Beautiful’

Okay, mean of me, but I just can’t listen to GBA. She’s trying but it’s not a great song to begin with and she can’t even sing in tune

Yay! okay, who’s next? Moran or Duran?

Yeah, I mean, with what Rocco has to work with, damned if he does, damned if he doesn’t. Can’t do much but hope when all you have is what the FO has given
