He was hitting around .275 with solid doubles power and great outfield defense. He had some trouble against lefties then went into a slump.

This is hardly some sort of indictment against Beane as much as Cohn wants it to be.

Cohn just hates Beane and all the A's fans who trust that he has a plan.

The writter of this article knows nothing about baseball - Fan 2008-08-29 12:49:36 (42 views)

I think they know some things about baseball, just not about the A's. - Flashfire 2008-08-29 13:04:56 (45 views)

do you guys get bonuses based on how many comments you get? - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:04:58 (27 views)

No way. I don't get paid anything anyway. - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:10:14 (26 views)

why does being a giants fan mean you have to rag on the a's? - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:19:27 (24 views)

wrong - one flap down 2008-08-29 12:34:34 (53 views)

well obviously that question wasn't directed to you, lol - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:36:54 (46 views)

Hahaha. Fine, I'll bite. - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:45:23 (58 views)

I'm not a Giants fan, but that doesn't mean I'll talk nonsense to try and rag on them - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:49:56 (25 views)

Well, you're a role model for us all. - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:51:55 (32 views)

not really. - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:52:51 (43 views)

See, I think Iggy and Lowell are massive Giants fans who are more interested in pissing off... - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:51:43 (45 views)

My dad's not a fan. - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:54:19 (50 views)

I'm not really worried about your thoughts on the A's. You don't know what you're talking about. - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:56:19 (44 views)

well that's the job of a blogger i guess - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:53:20 (27 views)

Might be a little early to close the book on the 22 year-old Gonzalez lol - Tanner 2008-08-29 11:35:40 (68 views)

And really, Gonzalez was doing fine until his slump - Flashfire 2008-08-29 11:48:49 (62 views)

Our point is that the A's are giving nothing to the fans. - Iggy 2008-08-29 11:56:58 (51 views)

Gonzalez will be back. You act like they just traded him. - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:04:12 (23 views)

a hope for the future that has persisted for 10 years? - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:01:38 (60 views)

It absolutely, 100% is their fault. - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:08:15 (67 views)

LOL - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:15:54 (52 views)

The playoffs are not a crapshoot. - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:22:33 (50 views)

how does that make any sense? lol - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:24:21 (54 views)

I'm sorry, not trying to get all testy. - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:28:47 (44 views)

Yes - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:35:56 (48 views)

Especially when you have a 162-game season and the first round is 5 games. - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:40:08 (42 views)

Clasic A's fan excuse. - Iggy 2008-08-29 13:06:43 (49 views)

Thanks for showing your true colors. Like I said, haters extreme. - Flashfire 2008-08-29 13:13:51 (28 views)

surprised it grew to this length- that's what she said. - Camelot 2008-08-29 14:58:42 (18 views)

Not to mention there is more luck inherent in the game of baseball than in other sports - Tanner 2008-08-29 12:44:25 (47 views)

If they're good enough to go up 2-0 or 2-1 in a series, they're good enough to finish it. - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:30:46 (42 views)

What do I make of that? - Iggy 2008-08-29 14:09:05 (33 views)

LMFAO - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:12:23 (47 views)

By the way, Lowell Cohn has one of the biggest hate-fueled hard-ons for Beane and the A's... - Flashfire 2008-08-29 11:26:18 (91 views)

poster of this thread is the guys son. - EastBayWarrior 2008-08-29 11:36:31 (80 views)

He helps with the Cohn Zohn, so it's fair game. - Flashfire 2008-08-29 11:47:39 (71 views)

My dad's not a hater. - Iggy 2008-08-29 11:53:19 (85 views)

why in the hell does beane deserve the same scrutiny that mullin/nolan get? - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:02:12 (54 views)

Because his team has only won one playoff series. - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:09:45 (53 views)

Ok, tell me, what's wrong with the makeup of a team that consists of: - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:18:52 (59 views)

Everyone was young. - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:26:23 (54 views)

alright, now i just have to assume you aren't a big baseball fan - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:30:06 (50 views)

Let me rephrase what I'm trying to say. - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:40:20 (49 views)

Again, the A's had the "superstars" - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:47:16 (50 views)

He completely ignored the parts about the 82-80 Cardinals winning it all and... - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:49:27 (51 views)

Not sure if he knows about those moments - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:50:45 (23 views)

Uh, okay. - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:42:55 (46 views)

Yeah, because those pitchers had failed more than a couple times before - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:47:14 (46 views)

LOL - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:49:20 (36 views)

Haha. - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:51:02 (38 views)

and if you watched that game, Zito got damn lucky - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:54:39 (37 views)

And Zito had already won some big playoff games for them before. - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:50:05 (36 views)

gotta love the dedication i guess - ɥsɐpǝpɐɟ 2008-08-29 12:51:09 (23 views)

They've proven they can build a great team before, so why do you suddenly believe they can't now? - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:47:59 (27 views)

Beane has never proven he can build a great team - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:58:11 (41 views)

Stop talking about things you don't understand. Thanks. - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:58:42 (28 views)

Don't get mad at me b/c you root for a second-rate franchise. - Iggy 2008-08-29 13:05:33 (39 views)

Enjoy the circle-jerk with your dad. You're both hacks. Glad to know I pegged you right away. - Flashfire 2008-08-29 13:14:24 (33 views)

Haha. I like how you went back and updated that comment. Nice photos. - Iggy 2008-08-29 13:18:57 (30 views)

All I'm saying is everything you said to fadedash and I was wrong and completely taken apart, so... - Flashfire 2008-08-29 13:21:17 (36 views)

I wasn't wrong. The A's aren't built to win in the playoffs. - Iggy 2008-08-29 13:25:25 (41 views)

Please, just stop. - Flashfire 2008-08-29 13:28:36 (34 views)

Your'e a classic Beanophile. - Iggy 2008-08-29 13:34:46 (42 views)

Nope. I've been critical of some moves before. That's you and your dad's biggest mistake. - Flashfire 2008-08-29 13:39:18 (38 views)

You present yourself poorly on the internet. - Iggy 2008-08-29 13:51:41 (42 views)

Looks like you're wrong again - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:29:16 (37 views)

How many teams got to the playoffs as much? - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:15:23 (44 views)

I don't know what he's trying to accomplish. I do know - Iggy 2008-08-29 13:08:21 (34 views)

Yes, he is a hater. - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:01:45 (153 views)

I understand the plan. - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:19:31 (47 views)

If you understand it, you don't do a good job of proving it - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:24:58 (44 views)

Isn't it depressing that the final chapter of Beane's plan is to relocate the team? - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:33:03 (35 views)

Fremont is not Portland, Las Vegas, New Orleans, Nashville, San Antonio, etc. - Flashfire 2008-08-29 12:38:25 (42 views)

How's construction coming on that stadium, anyway? - Iggy 2008-08-29 12:49:27 (27 views)
