Was just coming to see if this was posted. Hopefully stuff like this continues throughout the weekend to really drive the point home.

People are going to get it, but, they don't realize they're playing right into ownership's hands.

This season is already a sunk cost and next season a dead year with a MLE summer around the league in free agency. The change will come though and they're going to sell transition and hope as the 20-21 theme with whomever they pick to be the new FO taking time to "evaluate" (aka blowup) the roster before focusing on 2021 and beyond.

Well, it's better than the status quo and keeping these clowns in charge.

That's ok as long as we're getting long term change in the FO out of it. I can live with some putrid seasons as long as there's a direction going forward and a new approach up top. Ideally, the ownership group would sell, too, but I'll take the more realistic hope of getting a new front office and putting pressure on Reinsdorf to do better than this.

Perhaps on a somewhat morbid bright side, having the All Star weekend will shine a bit of a national attention on just how many bad things have happened to our organization the past couple years.

Beautiful to hear!!! #FireGarPax

The Reinsdorfs need to feel the heat. This is our silver lining from this dreadful season

[instagram][/instagram]GarPax have done some good (Height of Thibs era, drafting Jimmy, and bench mob), but mostly bad or mediocre. The good that they did, they ended up destroying it because of their own egos. So, on the whole, they've sucked. Even Krause, who helped build a dynasty, got 86'ed faster than GarPax.

Chant it during the entire ASG.

It is strange...A GM with 6 championships got fired even with a concrete direction.
Pax has got him hypnotized. Or, is Micheal and Paxson the same person by any chance? Just puts on a mask when they come out in public. Have they ever been seen together?

This is amazing

I would be so embarrassed if I worked in the front office

VolumePoster · Post #13 » by **VolumePoster** » Fri Feb 14, 2020 6:49 pm

Good. Let them know. I want them humiliated for a weekend.

FriedRise · Post #14 » by **FriedRise** » Fri Feb 14, 2020 6:58 pm

Do the owners or GMs of the hosting city typically do interviews during the All Star weekend? Or are they planning to hide all weekend?

Maybe they'll do a podcast or something.

That's probably the biggest public display of anti-FO treatment we've seen, right?

If you dont want the fans chanting fire garpax

Then how about not asking the star player if he has confidence in the front office in front of the disappointed fans....I dont know?

Chicago is a real sports town, this not Miami where fans just go to games for leisure. Fans know we about to watch jimmy butler who we traded so we wouldn't be as they call it "treadmill" representing another franchise whereas for us as much as lavine numbers are great this team sucks and fell below expectations and that is mainly on the front office in who they hired as coach and the personnel the surrounded lavine with. Draft choices not working out and about a dozen more dumb decisions we are paying for now. So if you dont want booing and fire garpax chants then dont come to this city acting like our fans are not in tune with our teams and not disappointed in what we are seeing.

love zach but hate garpax? the irony is that zach lavine is the poster child of the garpax regime right now. he is the perfect symbol of pax's break with his previous (and largely successful) method of building teams

I really wish they have an interview just like that but with Gar Pax and the fans behind them BOOOOO and Fire GarPax their lung out.

I would soooooooooooo freaking love it.

This was beautiful to see. I won't get my hopes up for change, but this is easily the best thing about this weekend for me.

What successful method? Turning in your draft pick cards.

Zach is improving while GarPax are getting worse even from their low levels. Zach is no break from anything. In the Jimmy trade, he was a happenstance.

People are trying to justify for whatever reason to bring up the good things Pax did....that shouldn't matter as he is largely unsuccessful.

This is a great chance for Reinsdorf to be embarrassed....death by a thousand cuts is the only way to get rid of them. And, this one can be a pretty deep cut.
