The only good that could have come from 100 losses was if someone was going to try to put a positive spin on this season. "Well the season was actually good for both the Padres and their fans, we got a chance to really see young players develo-"
"DUDE WE LOST ONE HUNDRED GAMES!"
See how that works?
Towers often has said “no team should lose 100 games,”
People will forget 98 losses and 99 losses. A bad season of memories will fade with time. People will move on, but once a team hits triple digits you've got something special. Something that will always catch your eye when you look at the Padres records from years past. One hundred losses means the team was in a world of suck. Think of all the teams and all the seasons since 1900. Only 140 have lost 100 or more games. It was 138 until the Mariners and Nationals joined the club this season.
I want people to remember this season. Remember it, so that it will never happen again. I want the decision makers to fear a season like this and always be on guard to never let the Padres suck this bad again.
Remember the suck.
Kouzmanoff said this tonight, he's already forgotten:
“Honestly, I think we're close,” he said. “We're not that far away, at all.”

You're determined to paint Kouz as some kind of idiot, aren't you?
He sucks because because he didn’t know exactly how his team’s won-loss record matched up with the Washington Nationals at a specific point in time, and now he sucks because he has the gall to say he thinks the team won’t be as horrible as it was this year. It must mean he is completely unaware of how bad the team is this year. Only explanation possible, really. He must be really, really dumb. Totally clueless, actually. Has to be it.
You’re right, the front office should never forget this season. But Kouz isn’t in the front office. He’s a player. The players have to put this behind them and move on, they have to turn the page. When Trevor blows a save, does he cry in his soup? No, he puts it behind him and gets ready for the next opportunity. The whole team needs to do that with this season.

You're determined to paint me and some sorta painter of idiots?
I like Kouz, I just don’t know where these quotes are coming from. How can he possibly think they are close to being good?
Remember last year when every time we won one game Trevor would make a quote about how the team is finally turning a corner and then they’d lose two or three. The next time they win they’d be turning the corner again.

Is it that big of a deal that he's not a member of MENSA?
I don’t care if he can’t count to five as long as he’s a good 3B.
