Scioscia tips his cap to Justin Smoak & Ramirez

[FabulousFabregas]

Real Scioscia postgame quotes:

 

"Justin Smoak, give him credit."

 

"Give [Ramirez] credit for getting out of that inning.  He changed speeds and pitched better."

 

"Tonight we hit a couple balls that didn't really fly in to holes with runners in scoring position."

Scioscia can tip his hat to dez nuts..!!!

[Mark68]

Ugh

What do you want him to say? What do other managers say when they're beaten by one of our pitchers?

Holy hell this is old.

I'm just putting what he said.  If people find it boring that's up to them.

Complacency.

Now I know why the players body language is in " I don't give a fvck mode"

Again it starts at the top

Your post was meant to shit on Scioscia's couch.

The giveaway tomorrow is a hat. Angels should have a world record tomorrow night with the crowd ... most caps tipped after a loss.

I think what he said was dumb.  If others don't, people can feel free to disagree like you did.

I've just about had it with Scioscia and his constant post-game praise of the opposing team when we play like crap.

 

Where's the anger?! Where's the fire?! I'd be throwing chairs and tables around after an "effort" like we saw tonight.

 

Complacency is the right word.

yep, too much credit given to the other team and no criticism given to his own players.  that's why they always look like they could care less.

I kind of wish Weaver was a player/manager.  He's a true leader.

This is exactly why we have a message board

Not to kiss the players or coaches a$$ bc we're afraid they might read this.

Keep posting brotha. Your stuff makes me laugh.

[HaloNation]

What do you want him to say? 

"we suck"

Thanks.  Love my Halos, wore my Angels shirt to school today and got ball busting from some fans of other teams.  The best thing you can do though when they lose like this is laugh.  It's entertainment after all.

Yea, Mike should call his players out in the media. My god you guys are incredibly stupid. Mike says boring ass stuff that has zero impact on how his players perform. But you guys want yet another reason to shit on him. If you deny it, you are only lying to yourself.

How bout just a little accountability ?

Just a little.

[Stradling]

Accountability in the media are you serious?

Clearly this strategy is working and getting the best out of our players.

Jim Leyland. Scioscia could learn a thing or two from him. The big catorce needs to go. His act is old and he clearly isn't a good fundamental manager.

Thanks for the 15 years Mike, here's a promotion to "Assistant to the GM"

"Our play these first two games is unacceptable to me. We were absolutely flat and at times we played like we were in a trance. This is NOT acceptable, not in the least! Stupid mistakes, terrible pitching from the bullpen, and some other things. These guys need to man up and play some winning baseball! I'm not happy with what I'm seeing so far. These guys are much better than that, and I want them to step up and start winning like I know they can."

 

Something like that is what I would want Mike to say, not the bland "tip our caps" and "turn the page" nonsense. We could end up buried by the end of this month with the way we're playing right now.
