I have been a loyal follower of the Pittsburgh Pirates since 1954, through good times and bad. But over the last several seasons, it’s been nothing but bad. Their latest roster debacle, the trading of recent Gold Glove winner Jacob Stallings, for another assortment of ne’er do wells and players from Rudolph’s Island of Misfit Toys, is not how you build a competitive baseball club.
The truth of the matter is that Bob Nutting and his faithful companion, Ben Cherington, are more full of it than a cow pasture. Their only interest is their bottom line.
Well, here’s my bottom line: I’m done … finis. No more tickets; no more merchandise; no more contributing to their TV coffers; no more nothing. Who’s with me?
