Re: Fay talks with Jocketty

Boy! are the Reds going to be terrible this year. If you thought they were bad the last couple years just wait until 09 starts. If our owner didnt come out and say he wanted to win now (and suppose to have proved it by firing WK and hiring Walt as the GM) I could live with a bad team this year. But bob has came out numerous times saying he wants to win now. He fired sa capable GM in WK and hired his friend Walt. This was suppose to prove to the Reds fan bas ehe was serious but all its done is amke the Reds worse. Walt has hurt the team so far and lied(yes lied) about getting a right handed run producing LF. Walt has had many chances (Dye, Burrell, Baldelli, and now Abreu even thought hes a lefty) to get a run producer and has failed. I thought he was brought in to get things like this done. I for one think it was a bad move for Bob to say he wated to win now when he clearly isnt going to spend the money or prospects to do so. Then to fire WK and hire Walt, what a joke. If I were WK i would look to file a wrongful termination lawsuit. He did nothing to get fired and the only reason why a lesser GM in Walt was brought in was because he and Bob are friends. Bob if you really want to win spend some money and trade some prospects and let us Red fans have something to cheerabout please.
