    I think he deserves a fond farewell, so it's time to caption this photo (disregard Garner if you want):

    "Basketball?"

    "There goes my career."



    That's all I got. Call me an ******* for starting this pointless thread; I don't mind. :D

    If you look closely into Garner's poker face, you can see the hand he was dealt.

    well, on one hand, I agree a change had to be made...on the other, to say Phil Garner is the answer and is more knowledgable than Jimy is just wrong...

    goodbye jimy...

    "Baseball in the Wind" by Elton John

    Goodbye Jimy Williams
    Though I never knew playoff ball
    You had the grace to hold yourself
    While those around you lost
    They crawled out of the dugout
    And they whimpered onto the field
    They met you on the pitcher's hill
    And they made you wince in pain

    And it seems to me you managed the Stros
    Like a baseball in the wind
    Never knowing who to fling it to
    When the rains of hits set in
    And I would have liked to have known you
    But I was just a fan
    Your baseball flew out long before
    Your offense ever hit

    Offensive hitting sucked
    The goal of a timely hit unfulfilled
    Baseball created us a deficit
    And pain was the price you paid
    When you were fired
    Oh the press still hounded you
    All the papers had to say
    Was that Jimy was found in Baroon

    Goodbye Jimy Williams
    From the young fan in the 22nd row
    Who sees you as something as more than pond scum
    More than just an Average Joe

    :D

    man, i'm glad we have phil garner in there, now. he's making all the difference in the world. new lineups...less bunting in the 2 hole...everyone just seems to play better when he's around.

    JIMY WAS CLEARLY THE PROBLEM!!

    MadMax, I've been trying to figure out for an hour now whether your post is being sarcastic or not...

    they are 1-3 since the change, and we are plagued by the same problems. There were people screaming for Jimy Williams to be fired, they got their wish and the results are the same. I don't think it was sarcastic.
