Theo Happy

Contrary to Dan Shaughnessy's column yesterday, the current management of the Red Sox is happy to be working with Theo again:


"The entire department is very excited," Hoyer said Friday, a day after the team announced that former general manager Theo Epstein will return. "Not only is Theo a great friend, he is a great talent. Having him back only makes us stronger, and our goal is to have the strongest department possible."

...

"I am thrilled, as I believe most of Red Sox Nation is, that Theo is back," manager Terry Francona said Friday in an e-mail to the Associated Press. "It is only right. He grew up in Brookline. This is his job. Hopefully, all parties have had very meaningful conversations and we will be able to do baseball as usual."

Dan Shaughnessey is a blight upon the sports scene in Boston... he is Larry's lacky... he wrote the story that was the final straw in Theo's initial decision to leave the organization... he then jumped off Larry's bandwagon when he wrote a not-too-flattering article about the "powers that be" immediately after Theo's resignation... he wrote that Theo should come back... and now he is complaining that John Henry has made the decision to bring Theo back... The Curly Haired Boyfriend is a BOOB!
