...I don't think we will see this kind of long term managerial success again. Especially with one team.

Enjoy retirement!

Good manager, but overrated.

He didn't win as many championships as he should have.

I was thinking the same thing. At least give Conrad a chance to make some sort of amends. I'm a Giants fan but I still feel sorry for Conrad. Can you imagine how hated he must be in Atlanta? He also knows he'll probably never play another day in the major leagues.

I will miss the Bobby Cox of the 90's where he was piggybacked by that godly pitching staff.

I won't miss the one whose been senile for about 6 years now.

True, But I think that it was lost on the field and not the dugout. Players have to step up & perform and the Fab 3 Pitchers did not.

Nice job Sir Cox your Class shall be missed in a sport that is mostly void of it

Cox was gifted with some of the most awesome pitcher staff in baseball history and He still managed to lose almost every year in the World Series. He won 1 measly World series but made so many stupid blunders that He will rank as one of the worst big game managers of all time.

Agree 100%....I could have put the starting line up he had along with that pitching staff and made zero changes during the game and won as many if not more games than him. One of the most over rated managers in the history of the game.
