PM needs to not show up for the game, or get himself thrown out in the 1st inning and see if the guys play better. If they do, there's your answer.

Jesus Condon is so dumb. If he'd ever played a sport, he'd know that getting yelled at when you frick up is just part of it. If you can't deal with it, then you shouldn't be playing. I can guarantee that players getting yelled at too much is not the problem. What a joke.

You're telling me "players" have given up?


why did you put players in quotes? No, I'm talking about managers and the bat girls. Where did I say they've given up? You're the one who said MOST of it isn't true, and I said some of it is true. He is a dick to some "players".

I'm sorry, I didn't know you're the only one here who can have baseball connections.

I know for a fact the core players who we see in the lineup everyday have NOT given up and will not until the season is over



I'm sure you guys rah rah it up after every game.

Okay, so some chick calls Jordy's show and says this and Condon takes it and runs with it? And we are taking this as gospel? I guarantee you that Mainieri will sit any players that he sees have given up. It's a slump. Players' confidence is down and it may appear as giving up, but it's just lack of confidence.

I heard from somewhere that the championship team did it without help from Maneiri. Supposedly they hated him, pulled together and had a team meeting after the Illinois series, and the rest is history.

he called condon out for not ever actually watching or going to the games, spouting of BS that has no credibility, throwing PM under the bus, just got condon pretty riled up. the caller could have done a better job, but he still did enough to piss condon off

I'm not.

Condon keeps going on and on and on and on and on about how he has sworn to "protect his source". Methinks he doth protest too much.

I'll say this, though...if any part of this is true, the "offended" players could have NEVER played for Skip with a skin that thin. Skip was downright profane with his players. And I've heard that from enough FIRST-HAND sources to know that it's a fact.

Mainieri took our team to a National Championship last year.

If true, which is unlikely, send them packing and start over. I'd cut every player on the roster before blaming Mainieri.

These kids are athletes and competitors. No way they lay down and give less than 100% for something as commonplace as a coach's ire.

God I hate Condon. He just makes shite up on a daily basis and his rants are for the tard crowd. Anyone with an IQ over 12 and a high school level knowledge of sports should never be amused by his shite...

You said players. Are you talking about one or multiple?

So far you've added nothing to this conversation. Anybody can come on here and say "Yes I've heard from a first source they've given up".

For the future, when you're walking around in the Quarter very late at night, don't believe everything that the winos shout out at the passers-by. . .

Damn coach getting on the players. That is terrible. Maybe they should call their mommies.
