Fired with 2 weeks to go in the season and tied for the wildcard spot, thought he would get fired, but with 2 weeks to go, sorta surprising.

I thought for sure this would be a headline Oct. 1st.
Not too surprised over here.

This has to be a first. A MLB manager being fired while he's tied for a playoff spot. In mid September no less.

Aww man, sucks for the NL Central has to lose such a terrible manager. He wasted the best teams they've had had in years with his poor performance, especially if they don't get in this year.

This was an interesting move. I wont be surprised if later it is said that the players asked for this to happen. Listening to the press conference, you could tell that this decision was made simply for the players as a favor. Yost has had run-ins with players and has generally been a poor manager. I dont think this will set any precedent for firing managers late in the season. All that being said, I still think the Brewers will not make the playoffs simply on the fact that they have a horrible bullpen.

He'll be killed by ebola before it comes to that.

If you're Gardenhire, after a good run they take you out back and shoot you.

I think RV and Mopery sent mails to North's sponsors, then North threatened to sue them.

Mike made a comment about obama and two other posters contacted his sponsers and I made comments on the board. Anyway, he starts spouting off about suing us. He says we mis quoted him. I talked with Paul Agase and he read me the transcript from the show, I believe he switched one word to take away from the severity of what he said, both Mike and Paul refused to play the tape so we couldnt hear exactly what Mike said. Thats says alot, I apolgized on the board to North based on the transcript being correct, if it was correct.

If he played the tape and I was wrong, then I would call him and do so, but until then, I wont do it. I saw Mike a month later at a remote and spoke with him, I think he was waiting for me to beg for his forgiveness, it never came and I told him, if you have to sue me, then do it, otherwise move on, I did.

Mike is a good guy who just has a bad radio show and wont do anything to fix it because he has gotten lazy.

Ballsy call by Yost to steal 3rd. He's on the team for next year.

I'll bet he went on his own. I doubt Yost called it.

He told me to tell you to reset his password. He says he's been waiting for a while.
