Am I the only person who remembers George Steinbrenner?

Good morning Mets fans,

Nothing happening in Flushing today so I’m thinking about the Bronx as tends to happen once the leaves start falling in my pool.

Late 70’s/early 80’s.  Crazy guy.  Owned the Yankees.

Fired managers left, right, and left again.

Ran Yogi Berra out of the Bronx.

Suspended from baseball a coupla times.

Traded the young players for old players all the time.

The Yankees fans gave a STANDING OVATION the night it was announced he was suspended.

Anyone remember this man?

Tonight the Yankees will honor a cuddly old general who just wanted to win.   Don’t worry about the Gene Michael part of the story or all the other stuff, it just gets in the way of the fable.

Sherman kills Jeff Wilpon

Wow forget that Times thing and the Joe Torre stuff.  THIS is the must-read of the day.  Here’s Sherman’s opener, but it gets stronger.  Must read.

Let’s give Jeff Wilpon the benefit of the doubt here for a moment.

Let’s say he is not short-tempered. Tone deaf. A credit seeker. An accountability deflector. A micro-manager. A second-guesser. A less-than-deep thinker. And bad at self-awareness.

Fine, he’s none of these things. But here is the problem: This is his perception in the industry as the Mets try yet again to fix their baseball operations department.
