"Tradition"

I heard Eric Karros on the radio the other day saying, "The Dodgers are a big market team. They need a big personality in the GM position. Now whether that translates to wins or not, I'm not sure..." I fear it's people like him that have McCourt's ear and lead me to be concerned about the direction of this franchise. But like I've said, with the farm system and the resources, it's going to take an awful lot to screw this up in the weak NL West.

Wow. What a quote. It's more important to have a big name than win.

I never could figure out these "old school" guys until now. It's one thing to say that their method produces more wins than "moneyball", but this Kerros-ism reveals the real truth: it's more about preserving the old boy network than winning.
