Rockies owner Dick Monfort on critics: Best way to quiet them is win

16 comments

1. Wrong! Best way to quiet the critics is to sell the team, Dick!

2. What is the second best way? Obviously the best way isn’t happening.

3. OK, do it then.

4. Then it sounds like we all have a greenlight to criticize the fuck out of ol’ Dicky

5. They’re going to be louder now.

6. Let’s try that then

7. You know what? He’s exactly right. But the critics are critical specifically because they don’t/aren’t winning and don’t seem to have a plan to get there besides don’t miss on draft picks, which is the goal of every team in every sport.

   Every Rockies fan want them to win….we’re fans

   This is all obvious stuff.

8. No shit, Dick.

9. I just can’t with Dick anymore. The path to success is right in front of his 🤬 face. Stop being an insular know-it-all, and build the front office using outsiders who’ve actually won something instead of your frickin’ kids and incompetent bums whose main qualification is staying loyal to the team for 25 years.

10. So he doesn’t intend to silence critics. Got it.

11. He said I think we are on the right track! Not even trying to say changes need to be made to win.

12. He needs to own up to the fact he has put family and friends in positions they are not qualified for. The losing continues because sack of Dicks won’t bring in really good baseball people into the front office. We have had good and even a few great players, we have never had a good owner or front office. The only skill sack of Dicks brings is union busting and fighting. The league used him to fight the unions, never for anything concerning actual baseball. We had a core of good and a couple great players and sack of Dicks Monfort burnt it all down to pad his pockets.

13. That would require winning then, Dick. So until then, get some ear muffs.

14. Ummm….. about that…

15. I say if you lose 100+ games, the owner has to come out in a dunk tank for the 7th inning.
    I’d pay good money per ball.

16. 31 seasons. 2260-2598 all time record. 5 playoff appearances. Only won playoff series in one of those 5. 10 winning seasons and a couple of those were close. Go ahead Dick…fans are waiting for you to prove us wrong.
