My feeling is that the fallout is just starting.

Signs point to end for Terry Francona with Boston Red Sox - ESPN Boston

You know, Theo Epstein went to my law school and worked at GD&C with me.

All I remember was that he was a falling down drunk. No joke.

Francona just got fired. Haha we don't mess around in Boston. Now if only we can fire Lackey and not re-sign Papelbon we will be good for next year.

Wow, that was fast. I kind of hate to see that. Terry Francona did a lot for that team over the last decade.

Don't think francona was the reason they blew up. Can't blame the overpaid players now can we?

Franconia used to live a few blocks over from me when he managed the phillies. Nice guy. I'm sure he will find a job somewhere.

the taste of victory can make certain people greedy, and at times, blind.

I agree STOPPIE. Francona is a class act. He will find a job immediately. Disappointing it won't be with a great club...
