News broke this morning that, at least for the moment, the Padres have found this season’s scapegoat for their once again lackluster (read: shitty) playoff performance: Mike Shildt. Yes, the manager. Again. Another manager. The fifth in the last six seasons, or as one might call it “The Manny Era”. Sure, they say Shildt retired, […]

Life can get a little confusing at times. A regularly scheduled reminder is very convenient. So here’s a refresher of what happened during the last week in faith.
What happened? It was not supposed to go this way. How did we get to this point? And how do they fix it?
What a difference a day makes. Twenty-four little hours. AJ Preller and his staff made some significant changes to the 2020 Padres roster, and let’s just say it feels very good to be right. More on that in a second, but let’s address the moves first. As a fan, and as you can tell if […]

You’re exhausting. You’re ridiculous. You’re a joke. Not a funny one. A sad one. A Jay Leno monologue joke. If your fandom relies on the box score of every game played then get out. If you want to stay then stop with the moronic tweets and ignorant posts that the Padres suck, or that it’s […]

Ah, yes. Let’s “boo” Jered Weaver. Let us force our opinion of him – on him. Let’s all join hands and be assholes – together. As one. Like, “the wave”, but instead of lifting our hands we purse our lips into an “o” shape and let out a noise that scared children in the 1950’s. […]
