Fire Baalke is like a mantra on Niners Nation these days and I must admit I do not care for the way the phrase has been (what I consider to be) mindlessly thrown around. Sometime clichés like “Fire Baalke” tend to take away from the content of a conversation and that tends to irritate me. However, I am a bit of a crotchety old man and I admit I am easily irritated so it may not be that big of a deal.
How do I really feel about Trent Baalke? I don’t think he is the horrible General Manager that most people do and I am not the kind of person to start yelling about firing someone without a plan so it is only after much research and considerable thought I that have decided he should be fired.
