Wendlestadt vs Gardenhire

[jwwashburn]

Is it possible that, in addition to Gardenhire being a jerk, Wendlestadt is one also?

Yes, that is possible. I don't know either of them though.

Not in this instance.

Gardenhire has made it fairly obvious that he is a jerk.

But, he seems to have a particular problem with Wendlestadt...just wondering.

For instance, Earl Weaver was...well , Insane and a jerk.

That did not mean Luciano was not a buffoon and a jerk, though.

Earl had a problem with umpires, period.

Gardenshire has a problem not being an assh0le.

I said Gardenhire is a jerk and Earl was insane.

You totally ignored my point, though.

No I didn't. I addressed it.

Ron Luciano was many things, and possibly a buffoon was one of them. That's because he loved his job and wanted it to be fun. But he was most certainly not a jerk. He was a very nice human being with a big heart and a childlike quality which I find very admirable.

Ty Cobb was a jerk. Ron Luciano was not.
