I'm also quite disappointed in you, of all people, tossing up this red herring into a discussion. I thought your discussion skills were better than that. I'm just trying to liven up the board which seems to be in a state of perpetual anger. Sarcasm is really my stock and trade. Not everybody appreciates it. I appreciate you, Marshall.

This from MLBTR:
Crane didn’t shoot down the possibility of hiring, say, Lance Berkman, Jeff Bagwell or Craig Biggio.
“We’ve talked to all of our Killer Bs and they’ve contacted me and they’ve all expressed interest that they’d like to help,” Crane said (via Rome). “Berkman, Bagwell and Biggio have all called me and said, ’Hey, if there’s anything I can do, I’m here for you.’ We’ll continue to visit with those guys and see if there’s something there.”

You can’t just hire all ex-Astros. You have to make sure they’re qualified before throwing money at them. Let’s not get carried away.

I think Crane should have Chris Devenski as his manager so he could be useful for a change.

You need qualified people, but, at this particular time, we need some people who can help bring back some of the respect and credibility we lost because of this mess. Biggio as manager would be a great start, and, then let him decide roles for Bagwell and Bekman.

He shows a rudimentary amount of intelligence besides the usual clichéd response that the other two always provide. However, none of them have managerial experience even in the minors.

Perhaps you should consider the possibility that you're not as good at sarcasm as you think you are. My answer was Perfect. It was a perfect response.
