    Al Campanis proven right, Dusty Baker lacks the necessities to be a field manager.

    In that famous Nightline interview, Campanis said blacks

    "may not have some of the necessities to be, let's say, a field manager"



    Well Ron Washington had a team blow a 13 game lead shit the bed and lose the division....

    Then lose a 1 game playoff.....


    Now Dusty Baker, up 2-0 in a best of 5....
    Comes home for 3 straight, only needing to win 1 game to advance...
    AND HE MISMANAGES the team into shitting the bed....


    Between Obama fukcing up the country, Washington and Baker mismanaging their ballclubs, is there any doubt that Al Campanis was 100% correct?

    can't argue with the facts. As the whole world knows, obama is a total disaster as POTUS. A FAILED ,laughing stock of epic preportions. As for black managers, you must now conclude that they are not able to deliver the goods like the white managers have, year after year, season after season. I think black managers (FAIL!) have been given enough opportunity to prove themselves, but time and time again have fallen short of the mark. You have to NOW reconsider Campanisis' statement....it looks like he was right after all. Poor man, just telling the truth..he was thrown under the bus by pretty much everyone. Utterly shameful, despicable, cowardly by the people that supposedly had his back.

    RIP Al

    rifleman,

    your compassion and sincerity is overwhelming and it nearly brought a tear to my eye.

    sadly, I like many visionaries, the Honorable Al Campanis did not live long enough to see that he was proven right.

    I just hope and pray that there is a heaven and that as he looks down he can take some pride in his accomplishments during his short time on earth


    RIP AL !!

    Nice to see you backing him up with no facts at all about baseball. Just what I expected from you.

    This is ridiculous OP. Ron Washington took the Rangers to the world series twice. They should have won the second. Not his fault his pitchers didn't want to win the 6th game last year. Collapses happen. Terry Francona's Red Sox collapsed last year.

    Mike Tomlin has kept the Steelers as competitive as they were with Cowher. He has been to two superbowls and won one. He didn't ruin that team.

    Obama does suck. He's no friend of America.

    Otherwise, this thread by the OP is just illegitimate racism by a phaggy hockey fan.

    Did you watch the games?

    Game 3 they got 4 hits, was that his fault? Winning run scores because of an error by a generally dependable fielder

    Game 4 - starter sucked, guy in bullpen sucked - only 3 runs

    Game 5 - starter blew up

    So what was the brilliant move you would have made that Dusty didn't make?

    excuses, excuses, excuses....

    now, please go make excuses for Haiti, for Africa, for no 2-story building being built before colonization, no established civilization.... nothing, nothing, nothing. I'm sure you've got tons of excuses for that.

    same old story.

    now ask yourself this. you now own a billion dollar team .... do you want a black QB or a white QB? how about your coach? how about your WR's and RB's?

    if we field your liberal dream team...... they'll go 0-16 and be sukking each other's dicks in the huddle while applying for those fantastic new marriage licenses!!! hooray!


    17!!!
    LEFT-LEFT .... HUTT ... HUTT ..... GROUP HUG ON 3!!!...... HIKE!!!

    Dusty was one game away from winning it. He probably made some mistakes but hindsight is 50/50.

    Apparently Davey Johnson doesn't have the necessary skills to be a manager anymore.
