I'm not exaggerating at all. Remember the massive thread about firing Gulutzan and bringing back Hartley – less than a month into the season? During that time, if you toted up all the demands from this person and that to fire so-and-so or trade such-and-such, you would probably find that the only employee in the organization whom nobody wanted to get rid of was Harvey the Hound. And I'm not even quite sure about him.

The nonsense subsided once the team started to learn the new system, but the last week or two I've been seeing a recurrence of crazy pants.
