More disliked by Angels fans on April 24th? Hamilton or Moreno?

[JAHV76]

My most dislike person as an Angels fan is AJ Pierzynski

[mulwin444]

Oh, you mean continually invest money in the club and try to win

Oh crap, someone get Jackie Autry on the phone maybe she can still save us from the bad man

[Lou]

At this point, or as soon as things are worked out, Hamolton can no longer negatively affect the Angels. Arte still can.

But Arte has has helped the team and can do so in the future

Hamilton never did and never will

Never did?

[tdawg87]

Never did?

 

Yes, Lifetime. He never did.

We can see how it plays out. Bad investments aren't a positive thing. Pujols and Hamilton are/were bad investments.

[The Ghost of Bob Starr]

Ouch. Don't you still owe eating a live sandwich for the Hamilton signing or was that Albert Pujols?

investing money on bad/declining players is just as bad as not investing any money at all.

 

i mean vlad was the only big money player that did well here, and that was 11 years ago, why do people still praise this guy over his spending?

[tdawg87]

A live sandwich?

[The Ghost of Bob Starr]

Pube. Autocorrect.

Yeah, all teams have them...what's your point? That Hamilton and Pujols are the downfall of a multi-million dollar franchise?

No...

[tdawg87]

Pube. Autocorrect.

 

That was for Pujols.

 

And I'm still holding out because I don't think the Angels actually signed Albert Pujols.

No...

A chronically underachieving team. Arte may be rolling in cash. But he hasn't won squat. That has to chap his billionaire ass.

[mulwin444]

MeaNing he'll continue to try and win. He's sat put the last two seasons in FA, leveraged some vets for talent and depth and resigned the best in baseball. You can focus on the crap but they're is far more good. Again, see what you want to see

You seem to have a real issue with Artie, like more than a normal fan hatred.

Did you get fired from a janitorial job at the Big A or something?!

how many owners have won a WS over the past 5 years?

I was a custodial engineer.

I don't hate Arte. I just don't revere him. I didn't like his approach in this. He wants to blow 68-mil OK. I appreciate that he spends, he just hasn't been prudent in his spending.

In the bigger picture I'm waiting for the shoe to drop and he announces he's moving the team somewhere else. If they stay in the renovated dump they're in, which I like, or they get a new stadium, I'll still support them.

As someone said earlier, I don't need another Jerry Jones here. Disney and the Autrys had their shortcomings. But get the right people and trust them. As was said earlier, the Disney-Stoneman relationship got a championship.

[The Ghost of Bob Starr]

What is it 2 or 3? I have no clue. The Giants have won twice.

Arte has owned since when? 04? I don't even know. Not getting to the WS was somewhat of a failure in a few of those seasons.

He's making money and it's his business.

As a fan, even a casual one, I can dislike what I see. He doesn't care what I think. Neither does Sosh or anyone else here or anywhere else. I just have an opinion.

[dimitrig]

Dislike Hamilton, but think the Angels look pretty low class in all of this.

[HeavenlyHalos]

Giants have won thrice in the past 5 years. 3 owners have experienced WS wins in that time. I think Moreno bought the team in 2003.

+1

Now, gimme my Rams back!

[Ohtaniland]

Thanks for the vote, but I wasn't part of the poll.

Did I win something?

[stormngt]

The Angels have won four division titles under Moreno. Maybe we should bring Jackie Autry back.

[stormngt]

The only reason the Angels are good enough of a franchise where some fans can claim not winning a world series a failure is because of Artie Moreno.

it's idiotic to hate the guy.

[LAAFANofLA]

We have the cheapest beer prices in MLB. I'm not mad at Arte.
