Nice to see that you're laying off of poor Coop a little and putting the blame where it really belongs. Cooper may not be the best manager, but he's merely a puppet in this organization and shouldn't receive so much of the blame.

RD I'm not naive bro. Don't get it twisted, it's all Drayton Mclane, Tal Smith and Ed Wade making these horseshit decisions. However, regradless of the ownership Cecil Cooper is and always will be a bad manager. He continues with this defensive replacement wiz in Jason Michaels. It's just laughable. Cooper is so robotic.


Well, I believe Ed Wade is a puppet also.

Cooper would not be my pick to manage my team, but he's probably not as bad as it appears. Just look at what he's got to work with and whom he has to work for. If Cooper managed a team with an organization that was all about winning and not marketing, with an owner that let his baseball people make baseball decisions, and with a bench with guys that could at least hit their weight, you might see a different Cooper.

Also, be careful what you wish for. Who do you think Uncle Drayton is going to replace Cooper with, when he finally shows him the door? Do you think it's going to be first class manager material? Hell no, it's going to be the next puppet. For me, it's a catch-22. Uncle Drayton needs to significantly change his ways or sell this team, because I don't see them going anywhere now or anytime in the future with him at the helm.
