We are last in the league in attendance, and the apathy is incredible right now ......

Back to .500, right, I have a hard time with that, too.

Just speaking for myself. I have no desire to go to a Tribe game these days. There are better things I can do with my money. I like to listen to the games, support them, and chat on here. But to actually go to a game?.... NO thanks.

And I blame the Dolans for my shitty attitude which might explain thousands of other attitudes in NE Ohio and be the reason we are last in attendance.

I will also celebrate the day that Acta is no longer the manager.

Just another reason I can't believe Mark Shapiro still has a job. The 2 guys he picks for manager are Eric Wedge and Manny Acta. That's probably 2 of the bottom 5 managers in baseball.

I am at a loss for what to really do moving forward this year.

The farm system is barren, so I don't see how we could really make a move that would have a tangible impact on the squad this year (that is assuming the Dolans would allow any money to be spent).

This was supposed to be the start of the contention window, but you would never know it from the way this team seems stuck in neutral.

We are last in the league in attendance, and the apathy is incredible right now among the fan base.

The Dolan's really need to evaluate how realistic it is for them to keep the team long term as the fans have turned on them and even a mediocre team that is theoretically in contention isn't really driving the turnstiles.
I say we just move the team.

I have never really had an opinion of Acta but the fact that he doesn't stand up for his team when they are getting fucked.....I have had enough. He sucks.

I just wish Dolan would sell the fucking team.
