More on Willie

Emailing from work again.... Read this great editorial in our local
paper:

And if the first inning of last night's game is any indication, it's
going to be a LONG season. Reyes showing up the manager in the first
at bat of the first inning as manager??? Come on! Grow up!

Willie had the highest winning percentage of any Mets manager since
Davey Johnson. He must have been doing something right? I'm not
saying that the team didn't need a change, but it's HOW they did it.
They look like clowns. At least when the Yanks higher ups had issue w/
Joe Torre, they were VERY public about it. There was no beating around
the bush. They were unhappy, we knew it.

Maybe the team needs a new GM. Like the article says, he hasn't always
made the best choices. Maybe the owners should look at the integrety
of the game and not just the $$$.

But that's just me....
