Game 4: Scapegoat Willie
Posted by Solly on June 9, 2008
I was going to write a lengthy recap of the game and the series, saying who hit what, how many runners were left on, etc… but after seeing this joke of a team over 4 games, I just don’t have the strength. I’m just going to write about the soon-to-be fired Willie Randolph.
It has to happen now, yes? This team has officially quit on Willie and I don’t want him fired, I want him paroled from Sheashank Prison. I wouldn’t wish this bunch of lazy, lethargic, uninspired bunch on ANY manager. Willie made all the right moves today. He brought in Wagner in the 8th inning of a must-win game. How would he know that Wagner and his Blutarsky-esque ERA of zero. point. three. seven. would fucking implode?
Willie, I like you. You’re a nice guy. You signed the ball the other night and made googily eyes at Mrs. Solly. But your team has completely quit on you and the Wilpons can’t fire the whole team (although you know they’re DYING to 86 that overpaid fuck Beltran) so you have to be the scapegoat. Maybe they’ll respond to someone else but when this kind of talent doesn’t perform for over a full 162 games, changes have to be made.
Enjoy the plane ride home, you fucking jabronis. You just got someone fired.

Willie needs to be let go because he’s too nice to abandon the cliches and tell the truth. “We battled” and “we played hard” is just bullshit at this point.

Not to mention they’re flat-out lies. No one has battled or played hard for over a year now.

The only important ones:
Schoenweis hit McAnulty
Hairston hit Feliciano
Clark hit Wagner
That sums it up.

Fuck off, yes?
No love for the Sheashank line?
