And if he is really advocating for Ausmus that much, then he is essentially throwing Dombrowski completely under the bus which technically isn't fair either..
Gibson is a commentator on Tigers games... He has no business wasting 15 minutes talking about how great of a job Ausmus has done and advocating for him to return.. Call the game and keep your opinion to yourself. The guy sucks as a commentator... I said it before he decided to make it known he supports possibly the worst manager the Tigers have had.
I get fucking sick and tired of someone who analyzes another opinions on a message board as that being their political profile.. So the fuck what if he's a republican? I have completely leftist beliefs and I still agree with him..
Yes... He easily took 15 minutes to discuss it.. and even went back to the topic after commercial break.
But he actually did.. He actually took time out of analyzing the game to completely support Ausmus.. Pretty much campaigning for him..
I'm not denying the fact that he has more baseball knowledge than all of us.. But what you need to realize is he is a public figure and employee for Fox Sports who endorses and broadcasts the Tigers.. So anyone on that broadcast will support everything Tigers related plain and simple.. Not only that, he is a former player and manager just like Ausmus and with that being known he will simply not call for his head in any shape or form.. The personal attachment he has with Ausmus is more than enough to simply predict that he was going to advocate for him to be retained regardless of what Ausmus has done short of pulling a Sandusky.. Just because they were former players and managers, does not mean their opinion is always correct.. It is quite obvious his opinion is skewed towards the former player and manager..
I was thinking the same thing.. Dan Jennings could manage circles around him and he didn't even play pro ball.. He just came out of the GM office in Miami.
