Toronto looking for New President to be Duquette.

[weams]

Rifkin was, briefly, a partner in my law firm. It was before Angelos' purchase of the Orioles, though.

What's he like?

Nicholson-Smith or McCown?

McCown. We've already had Morosi quote one radio guy and tell us a week ago it was "almost done." To be fair, Morosi couldn't confirm it, but gave it much more visibility by putting it out there anyway.

It's just my observation but it's funny how a lot of false rumors over the year come from radio guys, sometimes ESPN in Chicago or other nonsense.

I guess Fox Sports doesn't try to be "Fair and Balanced."

Same Morosi who said Rasmus got 1/4?

We are under no obligation to let DD go. If MLB is trying to convince us to let him go that's ridiculous.

But do you really want to keep someone in your organization that obviously doesn't want to be here? Seems counterproductive to me. If he wants to dipset, fine, go ahead about your business potna! We'll fine somebody else and move on.

If I have an honorable employee that has skills that I can not replace then yes I will keep him happy or not.

Dan is an asset.

If MLB insists on being involved, part of the discussion should be punishment for TOR for contacting an employee under contract with the Orioles.

Who other than Ken Rosenthal or the spawn of Ken Rosenthal has ever said Dan Duquette was unhappy working for Baltimore? The closest thing I have heard anywhere else is that Dan would be interested in making five times as much and being a team president. Maybe I missed something.

I don't understand how people translate his interest in what has been described as a bigger, better, and more lucrative job into him not wanting to be here. I'm confident he would want to stay here if that offer isn't as good as it's been pumped up to be. Not the same thing at all as "doesn't want to be here."

Yes, this. And the White Sox. The commissioner should do his job.

[waroriole]

I'm sure he thinks he is. By getting rid of a team president opposed to his candidacy. You know, like Soviet Russia.

No chance he lifts a finger to help Angelos while they are engaged in litigation.

It's the way of the MLB. He learned from the best. He was among the owners charged with collusion in the 1980s

One contradicting report after another and on the same freaking day! I'm choosing to believe what I've heard directly from PA and DD quotes at this point.

Where theirs smoke theirs fire. He doesn't want to be here. You can tell by the lack of anything this off season. he is doing nothing to help us. He needs to go.
