I have not in the past been quick to fire anyone but in this case I will have to agree he needs to go. He got an extension and nice contract. I realize Ron is not responsible for the cap situation and the lack of needed quality players but having players not ready to play and playing not to loose when it's so apparent that's the reason we loose so many games is all on him. It seems he is like so many of the players that get big contracts in that he has no passion now that his pocket book is full and will remain full for a few years no matter what.

He's got to go. There's no excuse for the lack of urgency and preparation this team has shown this season. I'm tired of the injury excuse or the lack of talent excuse. This team is getting it's collective asses kicked every game and it's not because of a lack of talent.

this is like asking if I want a million dollars. btw, be careful what u wish for. rivera might seem bad, but uncertainty is worse.  Next coach could stink it up or at the very min were looking at atleast 2 years worth of rebuilding with a new staff.  These are riveras players. a new staff will want their own.

    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
