It feels like Greg was told to say this forcefully. Yes, I know he’s a very good person when it doesn’t come to baseball but saying that he wants to bring a championship to Pittsburgh is just wrong, all Bob wants to do is not spend any money. It we all know this.

Brownie: blink twice if you need help.
I love Greg but he is the definition of a company man at this point
There went the Rowdy Tellez savings…
That’s some strong Kool-Aid
Sure, Jan.
OK I have to say after reading this I’m convinced!
Was too hard on the poor guy.
In other words, he’s a shill.
So Greg brown doesn’t run his own account
Bob Nutting can shampoo my crotch
This tweet is like six years old
Wake up babe new pirates copy pasta just dropped.
Toeing the company line here. I don’t think ANYONE believes this.
Anyone who uses “fake news” as an explanation for anything immediately draws extra scrutiny from me.
Greg Brown licking the boot.
I’m sure even John Fisher wants to bring a championship to OAK/SAC/Vegas
Sorry, Greg, but that’s fucking ridiculous. Do better.
So I’ll bite. Nutting LOVED the pirates and wants them to do well. The problem is really that he’s in too much of a bubble and scared of losing his ass if he over extends.
The amount of charity stuff he’s done and how much he enjoys the home grown players (Keller, Hayes, Reynolds, Cutch) makes me struggle to think he’s actually EVIL (rays, white Sox, A’s). Hell even the Orioles had one good season and the owner threatened to jack ticket prices so the salary didn’t cut into his bottom line. Read up on the Mariners as well.
He’s not saying that level of shit. He’s at least pretending to try.
I believe SOME of that
Screw him and nutting
Some #FakeNews out there. I happen to know my ex-wife. She’s as good a woman as I have ever met. She’s an excellent wife who fixed my life. She cared deeply about our marriage and wants us to still be friends. THAT is the truth. At least that’s what the judge told me to write every day for a month on Facebook.
Why would anyone think he righted a sinking ship?
…as long as it costs less than a Sentra.
I absolutely disagree with Greg on so many of his political views, boomer idealism, and of course his lack of awareness that Nutting doesn’t care bout the fans.
Damn I wish I was this good of a fiction writer
Some #FakeNews out there. I happen to know Andy Haines. He’s is as good of a hitting coach as I’ve ever met. He is an excellent coach who righted a sinking Pirates ship. He cares deeply about watching pitches & wants to players to take a 89mph meatball right down the middle. THAT is the truth.
Blink three times Brownie if Bob’s in the room with you right now.
Spending peanuts is an odd way to show it. Like I understand that ownership doesn’t love to shell out money on the team, but he’s making money despite everything and he still insists on acting like the team is on the brink of financial collapse.
There is money already there, Nutting just prefers putting it in his pocket instead of investing it in a winning team, the most frustrating part though is it’s just a shitty business move; for every dollar he spends making the team more competitive, he’s going to make 3 back in the form of merchandise, tickets and concessions. People come out to see a winning team. People in the stadium spend money. It really is that simple, and yet.
Ugh, Brownie with the Fake News hashtag. Say it ain’t so.
Cheapest team in all of MLB in every way. Joke of an operation that even their own players laugh at. Nutting is no better than Fisher of the A’s. Anyone expecting the Pirates to change their standard operating procedure is a fucking retard
If I was dying of cancer my pure hate for Bob would keep me alive long enough to see his undoing
What happened?
A good man does not run a historic franchise this way. THAT is the truth.
So the de facto propaganda arm of the Pittsburgh Pirates (SN Pgh) says something positive about ownership. Color me surprised…
Zip zap kazoo Greg’s licking the boot too
Pfffffffffff
Did I miss something? What even prompted this? Other than the obvious reasons, why even put this out there?
