How is that saying they know nothing, really?

well, i never once mentioned they know more or less about the game than Raleigh (although I would argue that some I've talked to do), but they still know what's going on inside the program. Something you have no idea about.

Funny how you crap on Raleigh's accomplishments yet everyone's suppposed to bow down to your little wanna-be Schuerholzes.

you're an imbecile. If you've ever paid attention to the baseball forum you would know that up until this point I've defended Raleigh as hard if not harder than anyone else that spends regular time here. I'm just letting you know what they've said is going on. It doesn't matter what they know or don't about the game of baseball, what matters is that Raleigh is evidently getting into hot water. But choose to fight it however you wish.

I'm not fighting anything. Just pointing out that what Raleigh has done far outweighs anything your sourses or whatever have done. Regardless, as the childish personal shot shows, you're just a lad who's insiders are probably travel ball teammates or school pals.

I'm really not understanding how what my sources have done compared to what Raleigh has done on a baseball field matters when the issue is that those with the ability to get him fired are getting a little antsy to pull the trigger.

actually I didn't know any of these people until I started working in the business, but thanks again for making an A** out of yourself by assuming too much.

I guess you work concessions.

Either way, my point is its not fair for you to downplay what Raleigh has done then expect all kinds of respect for who your sources. That's kinda backwards.

i just stated that winning in the SoCon isn't as big as so many want to pretend it is. Thanks for being such a classy douchebag in all this though.

Just as I imagine your "insiders."

[volfanbill]

just forget it "dude". It's obvious Raleigh is a god and is sacred ground. He can not do wrong.

[The Dude]

Glad you ended on what is so obvious - your strange dissing of a first year coach is so pathetic considering your whining about the lack of cred your anonymous little cronies get.

I find it comical that so many want to pretend they don't know anything, even though you have no idea what their connections to the game of baseball are. Most on here don't know me, nor do they know what I'm currently doing to make a living. I don't have to divulge that part of my personal life, but let's say I meet more people around collegiate and professional baseball daily than just about anyone on here. Save perhaps OrangeWilly i think.

Just calm down there slick. I could say the same for myself. And I know I am closer to the Raleigh situation than you are, because I talked to the man on a weekly basis during the season. I could get into a real pissing match but it probably wouldn't be too good for what I do either.

We can have differing opinions and views because I'm sure we talk to different people. This is a slippery slope we're running here and it won't matter just because we can't base much on what he did during his first year here, simply because there was a lot of good and a lot of bad and a lot behind the scenes.
