The Mets have been a joke for 46 years
Willie Randolph is better off to be rid of the Mets. This is an organziation that has been a joke for all 46 years of their existence, through different owners and management. From trading Tom Seaver and then losing him in the draft, to allowing drugs to permeate the clubhouse in the '80's, to the present, with letting Omar Minaya run the baseball end of things. Disarray, no leadership from management, no accountability at the top. Tony Bernazard is a fool as well. He was a scrub as a player, and not nearly the secondbaseman that Willie Randolph was. Was he jealous of Willie? Is that why he undermined him? Some director of player development - young players in the minors who are chubby and out of shape. Does he have any kind of conditioning program in place? They're eating too many burritos and tacos, it appears. And where are the Wilpons in this mess? Cowards. Staying out of sight through this whole mess, and not taking responsibility for any of it. They're almost as bad as Steinbrenner was. At least he spoke out, stupid things that he said. The Wilpons are a couple of scaredy-cats. They're the ones who wanted to get rid of Randolph. Why didn't they be men, and come out and say it? Mets fans deserve a lot better than the Wilpons and Minaya.
