That’s quite a great take. Still not close to a consistent playoff team … twice in seven years? Pat Quinn was winning divisions and got to Game 7 of the finals within seven years. And oh yeah he also coached the team as well and didn’t slither sway and hide from the media when times got tough.
Blob knows the young core is awesome and improving

... and that enrages him.

Nobody’s enraged. It’s an adorable story though.

I like to squash the troll bullshit with a size 12 boot. Benningbuilt bullshit, genius etc.

One day hopefully people will be on Team Canuck instead of Team Benning etc.

Polarizing manager for sure. I guess some folks identified with the Jethro Bodine style of manager.

New management… just as important. These ones aren’t obese with hair dye running down their 150 dollar suit and barely able to communicate.

Elmer- hey JT can you go talk to the media regarding Covid?

Elmer- hey Travis one of our guys raped a girl can you deal with this? I need to dye my hair and go to McDonald’s.

I know you’d follow a fat slug like this. You hated guys like Quinn and Burke too. Too much back bone for a fluffy fellow
