I always laugh when fans start railing on the commissioner for being an incompetent boob. Their job is to be the bad guy. In theory, they are supposed to be a neutral middle between the players and the owners to run the league. In reality, owners hire and fire them, so they generally do the bidding of the owners and act a shield for unpopular decisions.
Manfred is being blamed from every angle, but I doubt that the people hating on him could get together and come to a consensus about what he should have done. He’s no idiot. He’s just in a job that requires him to be the fall guy.
