It does look like it's politics. The time line goes-- old Coach (who was tight with the Pastor) leaves for new job, new Coach is hired - takes football to the finals both seasons, the championship game is over, & the old coach is suddenly without a job, so new Coach is fired and old Coach is given his job back.
There were a couple hundred parents and students at a protest, and more students would have gone but they were threatened with disciplinary action. Some parents are talking about pulling their kids out of their school. Right now, there is so much unrest and I think that if the parents knew the reason it would be better.
God. I'm so depressed about the Dan Haren trade.
The A's are going to suck ass for the next two years.

I'm so disgusted with what they are doing to my team. Might as well do the dirty deed and sign You-Know-Who and be done with it.
The current theory is that we are "rebuilding to be a FORCE when the team moves into Cisco Field, becoming the World Series Champ, Oakland A's of Fremont". Cough Which has broken ground - NOT.
Bitter? Me? I'm seriously considering boycotting next year, even though I'm having big baseball withdrawls.
Well they almost have to trade Blanton now. He's still worth a few Dodger prospects. There's no point in keeping him. Huston might go to.
Gaudin needs hip surgery, btw. We're fucked.
It's basically because Harden's been hurt for 3 years, Chavvy has sucked and Crosby has both sucked and been hurt.
They had no offense going in to next year and no prospects after Barton and Buck (who also gets hurt a lot).
But we're going to suck all kinds of ass next year.
Oh, I'm sure Blanton is gone. There is no way they would keep him now.
But we're going to suck all kinds of ass next year.
I know. And I feel like such a band-wagon fan, hoping off at this point, but all the crap that Wolfe has pulled with Cisco and now this annihilation of the team - I'm just disgusted. I'll follow the team, but they aren't getting much more of my cash.
Objecting to the baseball talk in the chill of winter?
Balance in all things.
To everything, turn turn turn....
