Fire whom?

The Denver Posts asks Rockies' ownership to bring back management for one more year, and then, maybe, fire itself.

I understand that some sarcasm is used in this piece in order to convey that ownership is as much as fault for the Rockies' losing ways as management is, but I can't stand it when people say ownership should be fired. It's not funny. It's stupid. Shut up and saddle yourself with the fact that some people own the means of production, and you're not one of them. Ownership has control. They'll run the team as they see fit. It is their prerogative to do with their team what they will. Denver Post, you're on the sideline, commenting, and hoping even your lamest columns stick.

Oh, and stop campaigning for Mark Cuban, too.
A deep-pocketed owner with a thirst for winning, and even the spotlight, could be king in this market.
This sort of stuff is for callers on talk radio shows, not opinion columns in a printed newspaper.
