Loria the owner

Just read Dayn Perry's summary of Loria's work as an owner, and I wonder if the Nuttings are all that bad.

My main problem with whoever owns the Pirates today has been the unlimited patience with failure. Now that the Pirates are playing better than .500 ball since the All-Star Break, I suppose ownership feels encouraged about "staying the course." Loria's won a championship, and winning is everything, but Dayn Perry's unflattering portrait makes the Nuttings look reasonable.
