Inbox: Minaya-gate

Obviously we’re in the middle of another major story…


Trooper York:    But this is a day that is going to live in Mets history. Congratulations on one of the most entertaining press conferances in a long time. The Mets always have better press conferances than the Yankees
..

Sparks:  You know the saying, “Give him just enough rope to hang himself?” Apparently, Minaya carries around his own spool.

Even if Minaya felt that about Rubin, why bother bringing it up? The ostensible point of this presser was to put the Bernazard episode behind the Mets. Insted, Minaya goes out there and creates an even bigger story. A VP with a bad temper pales to a major league GM picking a feud with a reporter.

In one stroke, Minaya has made himself look foolish, made himself look petty, and made himself even more of a media target. Like all professionals, the reporters are going to look after their own. This moron took what should have been a quiet little announcement and turned it into a full-blown sh!tstorm.

If Minaya is still the GM by the end of August, the Wilpons will have proven beyond any shadow of a doubt that they truly have no shame.

Anonymous:    This man is a joke. He doesn’t know how to speak publicly and continues to embarass the organization and all Met fans.


The morning papers should be tons of fun.  When I woke up Monday morning I was wondering how I would fill column space on Tuesday and actually had some pictures from Wrigley Field scheduled.  I guess we’ll save those!

  1. What I find interesting is that HR was supposedly already investigating Bernazard, however Omar said he had to think about Rubin's article because of his past lobbying for a front office position. Something is amiss here. Did Omar not know about the Binghamton incident? How could that be so? He is either an idiot or a liar.
