Jim Bowden never did anything to justify his position, not to mention making him the initial hire...and lo and behold he may be in jail before Elijah Dukes! Hiring Dibble just reinforced the nonsensical direction the Nats have taken. He is certainly unlistenable for anyone with reason.swiftbosoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17591074225044832021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-79193289070550990012009-04-25T16:13:00.000-04:002009-04-25T16:13:00.000-04:00I have just finished watching the Mets defeat the ...I have just finished watching the Mets defeat the Nats for the second day in a row on MASN. I must say Dibbs is the whiniest commentator I have ever heard. He constantly repeats his complaints excessively. Last night, he would not shut up about the visitor's bullpen location at the new Citi Field. Today and last night, he kept commenting on how the Nats did not take pre-game infield warmups. Alright already Dibbs! It did show with all the errors the Nats made today though. When I watch MASN in the future, I will try to keep the volume turned down!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-14322632845496119802009-01-31T19:22:00.000-05:002009-01-31T19:22:00.000-05:00He has a sense of humor, which was sorely lacking ...He has a sense of humor, which was sorely lacking for two years.

You can determine if he is a dope. Even if you think he is a dope you'll like mlb on XM. Inexpensive method to hear all the games. you get all the home bradcasts of all the MLB games. ...now let's see: Bowden has 7 MLB outfielders and wants X. Nady.<BR/>Look it up Bowden is the dopeyiest GM ...Dibble is a perfect fit. After the Nats draw 1.5 Mill in a 2 year old park.... it will persist why?..the Senators left twice!..look it up..Twins...Rangers.<BR/>omg ;-0swiftbosoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17591074225044832021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-43844226993673217712009-01-28T13:19:00.000-05:002009-01-28T13:19:00.000-05:00Bo Zoe-Please try to remember that the Nats do not...Bo Zoe-<BR/><BR/>Please try to remember that the Nats do not run MASN and shouldn't be entirely blamed for their hiring practices.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14687716991835136528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-90167663106871190422009-01-28T10:48:00.000-05:002009-01-28T10:48:00.000-05:00Edward Cunningham--Those franchises you mentioned ...Edward Cunningham--Those franchises you mentioned moved to Minnesota and Texas.

The Nationals are lucky to have landed Rob Dibble. At least I kind of liked him when he co-hosted a talk show with Dan Patrick about five years ago. I'm willing to give him a chance. Frankly, Sutton was too good to be stuck out here in D.C. with this uninspiring team. I never really understood why he left Atlanta.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-81951001725637524902009-01-27T21:02:00.000-05:002009-01-27T21:02:00.000-05:00I'm just going to cut to the chase and buy Reds ti...I'm just going to cut to the chase and buy Reds tickets.

Dibble is a poor choice for a well-educated Washington market that cheers for its teams with passion, but respects the opponent and understands that games are not as important as other things like financial meltdowns, international terrorism and rampant unemployment.<BR/><BR/>Whoever made this decision has a "tin ear" for this market, but, then again, it's what I've come to expect from the "Bawlmer" guys who run MASN. Anything to denigrate the Nats and treat them like 2nd class citizens and make their tv ratings even lower.

His tone is very peculiar for a big guy...it reminds me of a whining bully, if you can imagine the creep in ..."Back to the Future".<BR/>I've listened to him for hours and have spoken to him several times on XM, and it is really weird. Every time he speaks and tries to make one of his nonsensical points, he always sounds like he is whining. He’ll be very different than Sutton, but I am not sure if it will be in a rewarding way.swiftbosoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17591074225044832021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-56690240588704609462009-01-27T16:25:00.000-05:002009-01-27T16:25:00.000-05:00You're not insinuating that Dibble being an Red ha...You're not insinuating that Dibble being an Red had anything to do with him getting the job, are you?
