An interesting thing happened today in Padres land — a documentary dropped and immediately shook the foundations of the Padres organization and it’s fan base. Created by Change the Padres and entitled ‘Padres: The Sad Truth’, this four part documentary addresses the major failures and lies presented by the Padres from the 2009 season to present day. Simply put; this video is quite damning to the Padres front office. But more importantly it’s an expression of the frustration of Padres fans. Trade after trade, broken promise after broken promise, the documentary addresses the failures by the Moorad/Hoyer era up to the failures of Josh Byrnes this past offseason. Take some time and watch the video, reminisce about the Peavy era, shake your head about the Rizzo trade, and shed a tear because this is the most glowing reminder that life as a Padres fan is one of the hardest jobs in sports.
