I do think that at least at the on-field coaches/manager level they believe this squad could be a true playoff contender?

I think he was.<br /><br />That may explain why. Rizzo seems to play favorites (IMHO) which will get him into trouble and seems susceptible to falling in the trance of a brown-noser or 2 including some that he didn't recruit.<br /><br />Under JimBo, brown-nosing was an art form. JimBo brown-nosed Mark L. and JimBo in turn liked it from his employees.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-8879236710338084872010-05-15T17:24:57.026-04:002010-05-15T17:24:57.026-04:00cracked me up:
