    What a ty game. The only bright side I can think of is the fact that we'd lose only a half game on our lead, since the A's and Angels would switch places.

    hahaha oh and our magic number actually still went down one because of the A's loss. My own sig reminded me of that fact.

    Hunter was due to get blasted.

    Harrison had pitched a gem in long relief last time out.

    Cliff Lee is gonna be needed to make sure we don't get swept. As long as we don't get swept we'll be fine

    Financial guy on 105.3 thinks Cuban will win the bidding easily because Greenburgh has no financial backing.

    good

    someone with big pockets has to try to keep up with the big 5 spenders

    @ dumbass Spur fans letting their personal feelings about Cuban get in the way of the fact that he'd be a terrific owner for the Rangers.

    Having Nolan in the organization isn't that big a deal, imo. The success of the Rangers has more to do with Jon Daniels maturing into a very good GM, Ron Washington developing into a very good manager, and Mike Maddux.

    One game. We still have the biggest division lead in baseball.

    If the Angels sweep, then there's a reason to be depressed. Even if the Rangers only take 1 game in this series, that's okay. At this point, it's not about fighting for the division, it's about gearing up for the playoffs.

    The only problems I'd have is him trying to get in the way of things like he does with the Mavericks.


    Having Ryan IMO is a big reason for the turnaround the last couple years. Organizational at ude top to bottom and all that stuff....

    Definitely what I'm concerned about. He took a NBA finals team and smashed it apart with knee jerk trades. Kidd is a defensive liability and has been a horrible fit for that team.

    Also, I agree with melmart that this is clearly just a business deal with Cuban and not his passion. The Rangers will be the step kid in this and not get as many resources as these fools are thinking

    Avery is the one who demanded the Devin Harris trade. He told Mark to "get me a real point guard". Mark/Donnie orchestrated a deal to meet AVERY'S demand. How is that injecting himself? He's giving the head coach the players he wants to work with. Just because Avery failed miserably with Kidd and tried to rewrite history doesn't mean suddenly Cuban is to blame.

    And you're ing re ed if you think trading an injury prone Josh Howard (with a ty at ude to boot) for Caron Butler was a bad idea.

    It was a fine trade.

    As long as your ok with your owner meddling with team affairs.


    Its not the quality of the trade its the point the owner getting involved with the team as such.


    Its why I can't stand Jerry Jones and him thinking he's a GM.

    The owner should stick to owner ship and day to day BUSINESS dealings with the team.

    The GM runs the club from the field part of the team. That simple IMO and I wouldn't want an owner to meddle with the team.


    insult me all you want its just an opinion and you guys don't have to get asshurt over it and insult the out of me over it.

    Yeah I don't see how Texas can view Ramirez and Teagarden as better than him.

    Yeah, he got the yips when throwing the ball back to the pitcher, etc. and although he had worked through that issue for the most part, I think his health problems soured the Rangers on him.

    Teagarden is about 10000000000000000x better defensively than Salty or Ramirez. And considering you have a massive hard-on for Chris Davis' defense despite the fact that he's godawful at the plate, Teagarden should be right up your alley.

    What knee jerk trade? Name one.

    The Kidd trade wasn't Mark's idea, it was Avery's. So name a knee jerk trade that Mark was responsible for.

    Thanks.
    Nope, don't know who you're listening to but the Kidd trade was a big part Cuban's deal. I've heard it from more than a couple of sources here close to the Mavs, one of them being Cooperstein who said Cuban admitted it was a big part his idea and he felt Kidd could elevate Dirk to te next level. As usual he forgot about defense

    Next.

    If Cuban comes in and spends like crazy getting front line talent then I wouldn't mind him owning the club. The problem is that he isn't passionate about the Rangers, this is a business deal for him. He won't sink money to try to win like he does with the Mavs and take huge losses financially every year to compete payroll wise with the Yankees.

    Tell me why any of you think differently. Give reasons. Tell me why Cuban wasn't chomping at the bit to get the Rangers this whole time if he's so passionate about them and is willing to spend big.

    Players that are young and struggle at the plate NEVER turn it around.

    2 years ago we could have traded Teagarden for Bucholz but rangers didnt want to move him and insisted Sox take Satly and Sox said no thanks.

    2 years later TT blows, salty has the yips and Bucholz is a solid #2 in this league.

    What a dissapointment Salty was...thats why you cant hold on to all your prospects bc most of them wont fulfill their expectations
