During transition Goff was talking about why he didn't like Joe Maddon's attitude during his press conference yesterday and said "The condescending laughter, the tone that the people asking the questions are beneath him."

Bernstein added "I wonder why Joe chose to make it more difficult than it needed to be?"

Inneresting...

Uh oh. Sounds like they are getting tips from the loud voices in the room. We have now approached the Maddon's shtick is getting old era.

Im sure Maddon being openly disdainful of the idiotic giggling Goff used to do when he and Spiegs had him on the weekly hit last year burned his ass too.

I did love what Maddon said about social media, and Twitter in particular.

It was just a dumb way to ask a question.


Many people are second guessing you on Twitter and social media



Just say "Many people" or "Many analysts". Saying people on Twitter gives him the out to make it about that.

Marc Trestman.

This is what they do...elevate people to hero status so that eventually they can tear them down from a loftier place than they actually were...both cycles get more ears, both building up and tearing down.

Yeah, that must have really stung Dicaro and Goff and Bernstein who think Twitter is the be all, end all despite most people not giving a shit about Twitter.

Post subject:  Re: 10/17: Joe Maddon

this is a perfect example of what is different between Terry and Jason.

Right now Dan's reading a "funny" story about the top ten baseball playoff players to wrestle a bear. Or something.

Terry would have spun this off into something equally funny, with a backstory of wrestling a bear himself.

Jason, on the other hand clearly doesn't know what to do or say to add to this, so he either alternatively laughs along or says something semi-serious.

No, Terry would have started to inadvertently emit sounds that make him sound like a real bear.

Dan: Theo never promised you titles. He promised sustained competitiveness. (He might have used a word other than "competitiveness.")
Jason: If you get to the playoffs five times in seven years, what more can you ask for?

My, how things have changed from "Championships are all that matter!" :lol:

I think it was the first or second time ever with Joe, Goff started his snarky giggling garbage after Maddon answered a question. Joe seriously asked Jason, "What's so funny?". Jason shut up immediately. Spiegel broke the uncomfortable silence with an actual baseball question. Badrogue is right on the money... from that day forward, it was obvious that Maddon was not a fan of Goff and seemed to tolerate Spiegel at best.

Goff has been extra "Laughy" today. Giggling like a mother fucker at any and everything.

I swear to God, I think he does smoke up before the shows. Not all the time. But the way he sounds today, he's gotta be high.

Have they come to the conclusion that there are no "great" managers yet? If not, maybe they can retell the story of TheoabdJed bringing a bottle of wine to Maddon's trailer.

Post subject:  Re: 10/17: Joe Maddon

And how many different ways did Maddon have to disagree with Spiegel & Harkins today about the Wade Davis question? :lol:

They basically asked him the same question several times-several different ways and he shot them both down every single time. :lol:

You are going to have to throw the word "optics" in there somewhere. Dan can't verbally execute a thought without using it.

He literally laughed at the news that Portis had sent Mirotic to the hospital. Then, he caught himself, and mumbled he shouldn’t be laughing about a guy getting injured. I can’t see how a guy getting sucker punched (as reported) is funny at all.

Because the victim was a white guy he dislikes?

I laughed, too. Not that the fact he is injured, but just how big of a shit show the Bulls are.

I barely know who those two guys are but it's a laughable story regardless.

Being a “laughable story” and quite literally gawfawing over it are two different things. I personally don’t see how a guy’s face getting broken via a 250 lb power forward’s sucker punch is humorous. He could have ended his career.

I happened to catch a later part of this where a texter asked Dan who from The Score radio station would be able to wrestle a bear. You know they were itching to mention Big Red, but they had to hold back. Goff ended up saying Mully would be the only one.

The reports I've read have said it was a fight with both guys throwing punches. Portis just connected with his.
