Thr mention "woefull" is accurate Mr. Flemming, thank you for you honesty. Such a adjectivinal descriptor is directly on the ownership group, as thr PRETEND the franchise's values is billions of dollars more than iit is. The old GD vc style pump and dump to cash out.

Does someone have the balls to explain what the hell happened to Doval? Whistling in the graveyard, hoping to trade him for benefit is insincere and inauthentic, very indicative of baseball by committee. A race horse designed by committee gets you an 11 leg, 4 hump camel.

WIN 70% OF HOME GAMES, WIN 60% OF AWAY GAMES, that puts you in first place. Stop the BS injury list revolving door to sandbag payrolls.

Rip off parking prices, stadium food prices, Apple TV blackouts, high ticket prices, KNBR commercial jammed broadcasts, warrant fans voting with their feet and wallets; particularly with losing teams for a full decade. Verducci remain correct, rhe Giants are run like a Mutual Fund. Go Woke, Go Broke.

KNBR WAS JAMMING SO MANY COMMERCIALS INTO 2O24 SF GIANTS BROADCATS, THEY BECAME NO LONGER LISTENABLE. DO NOT RENEW THE CONTRACT. TAKE TALENT LIKE FLEMMING, MILLER. ETC. AND MOVE ELESEWHERE. LOCAL WORKS, SCREW THE GREEDY OWNERS.

Dave is just so good in this environment. It feels like he can be a bit more forthright in expressing his opinions.

And I’m reminded that I’m glad to have retired from broadcasting. Big changes are ahead for all traditional media, it seems. Change is often unpleasant.

Happy Thanksgiving everybody!

Great interview. I am not a big fan of Podcasts because of the time it takes to listen. But Dave is so good, I was delighted by this one. Job well done!

I know lots of people feel this way, which is why the Transcripts tab is a great feature I think. I need to do a better job of pointing that out to folks

Thanks, Roger. I’ll look into that. I hope you have a good “off season.” (I realize you stay busy, for which I am grateful, but still it must be less of a grind.). All the best.

That transcription has been a real sanity saver.

I wish they would have brought up Bryce Eldridge. I am curious to get Flem’s thoughts on this young man.

David if you’re saying that you wish they’d have added Eldridge yesterday, there’s no compelling reason to cut loose somebody else right now to add him. And trust me, on the day they determine he’s ready, they won’t hesitate to bring him up and put him in the roster

Sadly we didn’t get around to discussing him!
