stickymitts Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I don't see much of a difference. Consecutive losing seasons, waning fan support, players who have become apathetic....... Football guys draft and develop their own players. Narron may have a say in the first 3 picks of a baseball draft. On top of that, he doesn't develop anyone. To me, apples and oranges...

oldrambler Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I would agree that Narron should go (asap) but I really don't know if the front office will pull the trigger or not. lbbc stated earlier that there are some in a Reds uni that should not be and I agree, imo one of those is Narron. I still tune in pretty regular, I guess that is called being a fan (or loving misery:D ), I do however watch the Yankees if they are on. The comment about Crissy and George was right on........all you can do is laugh, thye are jokes along with Day :lol: . (I really cannot watch Day anymore) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilman Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 If Narron isn't fired in a week then I'll be amazed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stark Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 No, because then they would go one game over .500 and the Reds would hire him. I want Girardi. I want Girardi too, but don't you think he wants to see what the Boss does in the Bronx before he takes the reigns in Cincinnati? That's why I don't think firing Narron is going to help right now, because you can't get the guy you want in Girardi. I just have this feeling that Girardi is waiting to see if Torre retires after this season or is fired if things go south fast in the next few weeks. Is is worth letting Bucky Dent limp the team through the rest of the season just to fire Narron and wait on Girardi by November? Another mistake made by rookie GM Wayne Krivsky last season, giving Narron a contract extension too soon. Were they afraid he'd leave the Reds? Who would've taken him?

stark Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Mattingly will be the next Bombers skipper. He'll be one of the candidates, but I think Girardi has the inside track. It may come down to if the players respect Mattingly before he lands the job or if "the Boss" likes to have someone talk-back to him in Girardi.

stark Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Would Torre come here ? No way. Torre doesn't have a nice history/track record of managing in the National League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malachicrunch Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I really don't see an accomplisdhed skipper interested in this job. Small market, combined with failing front office will keep a lot of people away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Schue Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Krivsky and Castellini both assured the Reds writers last week that Narron was their guy and wouldn't be fired. Or was the vote of confidence the classic kiss of death? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooperstown Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Probably in between. I don't think they're happy with Narron, but also don't want to fire him because it reflects poorly upon them. I very much agree with stark's comment that he'll stay because firing him alone won't fix the Reds and you can't hire the guy you truly want right now anyways. But man, I'd love to wave bye-bye to Mr. No Emotion as soon as possible. He is simply not a quality big league manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
