Red Sox Nation -Check In

Sigh, feels like deja vu, the Olde Town Team has reverted to their pre 2004 persona. Well, if you've been a fan as long as I have, you are accustomed to it.
A few thoughts:
How do you think Dan Douquette is feeling these days, (can you say vindicated?)
Will John Henry actually let Ben Charington do his job rebuilding the team or will he be forced again to march to Luchino's, (you know the guy who insisted on hiring Bobby V), drumbeat?
I could go on but sadly the only thing to say at this point is the old "wait till next year" (of course Belicheck & Company could help us forget sooner)

Mercifully it is almost over. Let me be the first to say goodbye to Bobby V. It was not all his fault, but I think it is inevitable. I hope Ben Charington has a good offseason (a good start would be to make a deal with Toronto and sign John Farrell ASAP). He needs to decide who is worth keeping and who has to go and then be decisive about his moves. Should be an interesting hot stove season
