Do you not understand that continuing to financially support the team in their ineptitude is literally doing nothing to pressure Arte to do anything different? It's laughable that you're putting forth this tough guy "things need to change!" stance while your actions do nothing but reinforce the status quo. Lol, nice work, 

 

I believe the Angel franchise is bigger than one man.   Many believed it once.   Waiting for someone to make us believe it again.

Losers breed losers.  You get what you tolerate. etc. etc. etc.  The cycle continues for another year. 

Every person wearing an Angel uniform is a better, more knowledgeable, more motivated athlete than you ever was or could hope to be regardless of "results."  Competition at the MLB is incomprehensible unless you played at a level beyond little league and high school. Everything you write tells me you have never competed at a level where success and failure was publicly displayed.  Your incessant demands for accountability for loses continues to describe your lack of understanding for what the Angels players are experiencing.  For the record, I have no idea what happens in the dugout, but I can safely assume every player on the field is competing as much as they are capable of doing, and hopefully enjoying the experience. 

Losers breed losers is something said by people afraid to compete. Every person who competes understands the role and responsibilities connected to winning and losing.

Be better.

IMO and many others, There should be accountability for a win % under .500 vs Oakland, Rockies and White Sox.  Or is that bar a little high for you.

"Many others."  Who, aside from the voices inside your head?

Did Swordsman mention he has season tickets?

We can all only hope some heroic, brilliant (top tier) season ticket holder would lobby. . .

Yes you are less vested.  Sorry.  .

you may be more financially invested in this team, but it's pretty arrogant in this group to claim you're more invested in this team than anyone else. emotional investment counts just as much.

Questionable.  He probably splits a 20 game package in 507, but loves throwing around the “season ticket holder!” label.  My guess is it’s more accurate to say he bought some tickets to some games.

I bet he is tier 6 of “season ticket holders.”

He's trolling.

Yes but will he be “held accountable”?

As the usual piling up of injuries happens, seemingly every season now compared to other teams, 10-9 maybe 11-8 against those 3 teams this season.

Tier 1 improvement from the young guys, Tier 2 play from the guys we hope to trade, Tier 3 improvement from the guys filling out the rest of the roster, Tier 4 in game coaching decisions, Tier 5 news on the guys in the minors, Tier 6 threads from you.

4-5

I'll be able to give a first hand report Tonight from my season seats, on the halos prospects vs. these teams.

Make sure to wave to Arte from the left field bleachers. I'm sure he appreciates your continued support.
