I would have the radio up to my ear.

May not win 70 games this year. The spiral down to being lousy is painful to watch.

They were entertaining eventhough they sucked. The A’s have none of that now bro, it really is the Pirates,Royals,and Cubs. Zero excitement. That’s all I’m saying.

Um, I’m not happy either, but let’s not lose perspective. I can remember near 100 loss seasons not too many years ago. A lot of the 90′s were pretty bad.

Feeling hopeless is being a Pirates / Royals / Cubs fan.

I really believe if there is any chance to salvage the season and keep pace, Geren needs to be fired tonight. What do the A’s have to lose? Maybe the A’s respond to a new enthusiastic leader and turn it around…..or maybe they don’t. Either way, change is needed. I really want to keep watching because I love the A’s, but I can’t ever remember it feeling this hopeless. Go A’s

Geren as team manager defines this whole organization as SUCK.

If Carter were healthy this year, would there have been the possibility of Barton being placed on the dl with a pulled hamstring by now too? Would’ve, should’ve, could’ve.
