JPR is a tool. Can't say as I miss him at all.

 

I'm not sure what his objective is here.

 

Yes

 

I don't know why he is talking about this now

 

Says "Rogers didn't get to know me at all, and I'm pretty sure they never got to know Alex, either"

JPR is terrible lol. He reminds me of Brian Collagello who always comes on to radio and taking credit for the Raptors.

 

Although maybe TSN pushed him to saying this since its their rival. Haha you never know in this business...

Jeez, he sounds annoyed about his time in Toronto

 

I know I'm annoyed by his time in Toronto. Yes former employee tries to stir up s***. This is the first time this has ever happened.

Why is JPR, who works for the New York Mets discussing the Toronto Blue Jays off-season budget? What is an off-season budget anyway?

He's answering the question.

 

Why do you guys get so upset about someone sharing their opinion. He's talking about his time in Toronto and I don't mind hearing it. Many of us have no respect for Rogers...and this is just another piece of info that shows us that our gut is possibly right for thinking that way.

Who is really upset? I could give a s*** about anything JPR says to anyone ever. I just don't know what his objective is. That's all. Yawn.

I don't see any objective other than answering the question. If he called up and said 'I want to share some things about my time in Toronto and Rogers' then that looks fishy. But this interview? No.

 

He didn't say anything most of us weren't already thinking or knew.

Ya. That's fine. I have an immediate JPR default bias.

I despise JPR. Arrogant, hated his draft philosophies, and is a liar...Although...If JP knows the truth, it's not a lie.

Under Ricciardi? That would have been Godfrey.

 

Oooooooh right I forgot. f*** Paul Godfrey. No wonder Riccardi's experience with Rogers was s***.

 

I liked what JPR said in the interview, but why is TSN so negative about the Jays? Is it the Rogers/Bell rivalry? lol

Didn't listen. JP is an idiot. Who's worse, JP or Ash...I think I'd take Ash back before JP.

 

You'd bring back the GM who mentored Dave Stewart?

Ash was one of the worst GM's of all time (yes and I stand by that!). JP wasn't anywhere near that bad.

I agree Ash sucked. Was a different time for the team though. And JP probably is a better choice, actually definitely is...but I really don't like him.
