    Deserves? No.

    Enough time has passed that people might be willing to give him another chance? Maybe.

    Author of the article was fired by the Miami Heat more than two decades ago, maaaaybe because he said Thomas Jefferson’s slaves would have made fine basketball players.

    If he wants to work again I hear there are plenty of restaurants looking for help.

    Play by play? Nope.

    No one is clamoring for Thom Brennaman's return. I do wish Marty Brennaman would come back.

    Thom McAn made nice shoes back in the day. He could sell shoes at Sears and there's a three-run homer to left by Castellanos and the Reds now lead 4-0.

    There's a Sears left?

    BTW, congratulations on reaching the 15,000-like plateau. You're a very likeable guy.

    Huh.

    It's more that I post a bunch of tweets, and this is a diverse enough crowd that generally someone likes them. But thanks. I had no idea.

    Not too many. I have 7,000 some Sears points from past purchases, which is worth about $7, but there are no Sears near me. I randomly found one in another city and was going to purchase a shirt from their meager pickings on the rack to burn the points but there was just one cashier and about 8 people in line. No thanks.

    Hell yeah. I'm in the Houston metro area, and the wife and I got our fridge, bed, washer and dryer from Sears. Free delivery and installation, and their customer service was almost TOO good. They call like three times to confirm one delivery, because it had a long lead time, vs. the furniture store that just friggin' showed up with a call five minutes ahead of time.

    Our closed Sears was turned into a vaccine site. I brought a hammer to return out of habit.
