This guy really cemented his reputation as an asshole. I'd have to think hard to think of a manager who did worse job than Valentine. His "handling" of the media has to be the worst in the last 2 decades of baseball if not more, not to mention the mutiny in the clubhouse. On top of that, he rips his coaching staff!

What a total idiot.

October 3rd, 2012, good friend.

Only another Super Bowl run by the Pats will get this out of the bloodstream. Maybe Bobby V can come manage the Joliet Slammers.

Probably the worst handling of a team by a manager ive ever seen. I wont be surprised if this is his last gig in the bigs after that season long soap opera

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. I said this was a bad hire from the beginning. He destroyed that team.

+1

I don't know what was the last straw for Bobby Valentine in Boston. What he said about Kevin Youkilis prior to him getting dealt to the White Sox, supposedly threatening one of the hosts of the team's flagship WEEI SportsRadio, or what he said about getting "undermined" by his coaches prior to last night's finale with the Yankees on 'EEI...

I am going to go out on a limb and say it was the ninety-three (93) loss, last place season.

So you are saying that you are in favor of executing Bobby Valentine, SHARK!?

Bobby Valentine should just go away...Period. He was terrible on ESPN's "Sunday Night Baseball" & wasn't much better with the Red Sox in his only season filling out the lineup card. He's so smug, pompous & an asshole!

It was already on course towards the iceberg, he just made sure the rudder was locked into crash position.

Still, that fake mustache stunt is an all-time favorite baseball moment.

I'm shocked this didn't work out. Almost as shocked as Ozzie Guillen not working out in Miami.
