MORE KJR, MORE GM SEARCH STUFF
Dick Fain's shift going on right now on KJR. He has noticed that Darrell Jackson cost the Seahawks two drives yesterday; one on a dropped pass on third down and the other on a fumble. He is also asking where the hell Koren Robinson is, because he's barely getting the ball. Fain says that Jackson hasn't been the same since he "got his bell rung" when he went over the middle against Dallas last year. Now, says Fain, Jackson doesn't even go over the middle at all and is now dropping passes when nobody's on him.
And as has been noted multiple times in blogspace, the Brian Cashman rumors are flying. I don't want him; I really don't. Problem is, the only people I'd even want are DePodesta, Antonetti, Ng, or maybe Beattie or something, and they aren't even interviewing (except maybe DePodesta) anybody out of that group. Instead, we have "old guard"-type people like Looper, Pelekoudas, and all these lame guys who have been at the heads of rebuilding efforts, like Jennings or Avila. What the hell kind of message does it send if the M's are interviewing guys who were in charge of rebuilding? If they bring in a guy who is good at rebuilding, what should we expect from that guy? To make the team better by adjusting here and there, or to blow up the team and start from scratch? If they want the latter, I hope it waits two or three years...
