The upside is, now the Brewers can hire a manager that can win "the big ones."
and he’s gonna be the highest paid manager……😳 😳 😳
Why don’t you kick a man when he’s down, Chongo?

Well look at the bright side. Maybe by not paying Counsell an exorbitant salary, now they can afford to keep Jesse Winker? 😉

whatever demons....
Mark Attanasio is having a secret affair with Mark Murphy. Two guys that backed into a ridiculous amount of financial success despite doing nothing of substance to achieve it yet will torment us with their idiocy and play up the “I’m one of us” bullshit.
And yes I know that’s got Feyda aroused

Still obsessed with me....
That substitution exchange by the Jets was awesome. Knocked the TE to the ground 😂
If I were to judge the future of American English and grammar based on current tv commercials…will our nation’s official language be hip hop by 2030?
Where have you gone, Barbara Billingsley?
Jets D is what Joe Barry has in his fever dreams.

You mean the Barbara Billingsley that was in the Airplane movie?
I need her to sit in my living room.

June Cleaver and Harriet Nelson both said they are willing to stop over anytime and organize your life.

You need to take over these thread titles. BK is way too emotional.

What some BS
Here's some more of that quote.
“Relative to managers — most things are worth what someone’s willing to pay for them. Craig was definitely a key part of our success but if I wanted to list all the reasons we’re successful, we’d be [here] for another half-hour.”
Here's who I would say were the key contributors over the last 6 years:
1. David Stearns - who left after 2022
2. Josh Hader - who you traded away in 2022 while in first place with another year of arbitration before free agency
3. Corbin Burnes - who you pissed off last year in arbitration enough to have him hire Scott Boras
4. Lorenzo Cain - who was replaced with some raw rookies after he got old. It might be a good move long-term, but spending some money on a solid veteran somewhere in the lineup would have been helpful.
5. Christian Yelich - who is a shell of his former shelf likely due to injury.
6. Brandon Woodruff - will miss all of next year
You also just traded your 3rd best hitter from the 2023 pennant race for a low-level prospect rather than pay him 11 million next year.
The next time Attanasio waxes poetic about what a nice place Milwaukee and the community is to be, someone should ask him how many days he's ever spent in Milwaukee in his life that weren't game days or flying in or flying out on his private jet for game days.
He gets credit for doing more than the minimum to stay mildly competitive. The Brewers could have had a worse owner, but he really dialed back after 2019 in terms of trying to maximize their competitiveness.
I think he's setting up to sell the team and wants the stadium maintenance paid for by the Wisconsin taxpayers and to keep the payroll low to maximize his profit when he sells.
