because they blame other people for their losses. Waaaaaaah! It was the goat's fault....Waaaaaaah! It was Bartman! Waaaaaah! The Cow started the fire! Waaaaahhh!! (Ok, cheap shot there). But anyway, your just now realizing how terrible of a manager Dusty Baker is?

At least in Pittsburgh, we attack our own players and management before we blame the outside world. We know the Pirates suck. But not because of some "curse" or nerd (who btw didn't make an error at short or melt down on the mound or didn't bother to run out any ground balls). The Cubs believed their own hype. Only when the Red sox stopped giving a shit about it did they win.

My point is that it's ok for you to be pissed at Bartman (as misguided as it is to be) but not for Dusty Baker, Alou or Prior. Remember Baker's infamous "it was about fan interference" quote after game 6? He should have been fired right after that series. How dare he deflect criticism to a FAN.
