I totally agree with you on this and it was kind of funny in a way that this article would be released on a day that Jones blows a save in a pretty significant game. But I think Jones has it pretty much wrong in assuming some fans go to shock jock sports radio for their information: I honestly don't know too many people who listen to sports radio for information - they listen to it to hear the goof balls call up and vent. It's their job to rile people up and get them to call in - it makes for better radio.
But honestly Jonesy (who I think is a very good dude off the field) are people that far off in wishing Joel would start closing next season instead of you? If he thinks the fan base is waving around the torches on the closing issue because of shock jock radio - he is really delusional.
