The Rangers are definitely on a roll, doing their annual best to be the
MLB doormat MLB. Their winning percentage has dropped to .389, what an
accomplishment. That means they are winning almost 39% of their games.
Outstanding. Keep up the good work nimrods!

Even though this is basically the same team as last year, you cannot direct
any of the blame towards the manager. He is a sacred cow. I'm sorry - if
the only difference is the manager, and the team is dramatically worse -
there should be the POSSIBILITY of criticism directed at the manager. If
you suggest it here, you are a racist. And if you are in the media, well,
you must just be in love with the man, because I have heard NOTHING from the
media. At least there is starting to be whispers of criticism about
Daniels.

I am not preaching for the head of either of them on a pike. I just want to
be able to use my 1st Amendment rights to criticize them.

I never said anything about it being the manager's fault. The Rangers were a
doormat team long before Washington arrived. They've been a consistently
piss poor franchise through several managers. I think that would seem to point
to ownership.

I mis-typed - I know you did not blame Washington, but I think he should
share in the blame. You know damn well Buck did, and he lost his job for it
(I am not damning or defending him, just making a point). Why is Washington
immune? Same team, worse results. I though he was going to improve
defense. What are they, worst in the AL?
