Willie stays for now. I’m BBQing with friends and family so a quick hit from the Mets Police.
No guarantee from owners on how long.
Mistake on the Mets part – the fans stay unruly, the team stays distracted.
>Willie Watch: The Meeting Is Now
>
NY Post reporting the meeting was at 2, and that Wilpons showed up at 1:20. My spidey sense thinks they all announce Willie will be the guaranteed manager for the year (to shut up dopey bloggers). Second place spidey sense says Jerry Manuel becomes “interim manager” for the year (boy that would be silly on several levels).
Unrelated – why are some basbeall teams off today? Hey MLB, nice head.
Also: The Mets’ June 1 home game against the Dodgers has been switched to an 8 p.m. start to accommodate ESPN. (NY Post)

Cool link here about The Curse of Eddie Grant.
Some say that it’s the reason the San Francisco Giants never win.
Others say it’s the reason that every single free agent that comes to Shea leaves his best game with another team.
Others still say it causes New York national league managers to lose their mind and say willy words like “machete.”

Legend has it, the only way a curse can be lifted on a franchise is to admit that a team other than the Dodgers once played here.
