Theo Epstein is dumb.

Hang on now. You lose last night after midnight, you are exhausted, you probly dont get home till 2am or later, and youre already doing exit interviews the next (or shall I say same) morning?

Why not just wait another day? What's the rush?

Epstein looked beyond fatigued in this press conference. He already exit interviewed 2/3 of the players? What can you accomplish when youre so exhausted? Take the damn day off and do them the next day! Or at least do a few of the interviews, start at noon lets say and do a couple players and call it a day.

What is this bullshit of losing after midnight, coming back the next morning to do exit interviews of most of your players, then finding out about Russell's suspension and then doing a 70 minute press conference?!

I dont understand why he couldnt just wait one more fuckin day to let things sink in. How can you operate, do exit interviews, talk to the media, when you havent had a chance to think things over, prepare what you want to say to everybody, etc?

This is horribly inefficient and dumb. You cant wait one extra day to get to the offseason? Jesus.

Players leave town almost immediately. Everything they would say to them is prepared probably weeks in advance. If they indeed interviewed 2/3 of the team, that averages out to about 15 minutes per player. That tells you exactly the importance they place on the interview

This is the exact type of crap we need to get rid of. The OP is kind of a weirdo but grow up. You are a jerk to everyone 24/7.

If you're going to preach that you catch more flies with honey than vinegar, perhaps you should employ the same method.

Not really. People are stupid. It's an "exit" interview, which means it should be done as close as possible to the time the team exits the season...which was Monday night/Tuesday morning.

Most people understand that. Some are just fucking morons. whistler appears to be one of these morons.
And if this is a mult or an act, its a terrible one.

Its not really even an exit interview. It is more like a yearly progress meeting except for maybe Murphy.

Obviously Gore, for multiple reasons
