Ex-Mets skipper pens his side of the story
Published 6/20/2008 by Eddie D'Anna at SILive: Ya Gotta Believe
Maybe Wille Randolph is preparing for his second career as a journalist. The dethroned Mets' skipper penned a play-by-play for the New York Daily News on his departure from the Mets organization. My two cents? Willie's very lucky folks are talking about the way the Mets botched his firing as opposed to the fact that he was at the helm of one of the worst collapses in baseball history in 2007, was under .500 with a $139M team in 2008, and led a talented group to the post season just once in four years.

... guys seem to have no desire to stop trashing the Mets, turning Willie Randolph into a martyr, slamming Jerry Manuel for his "gangster" joke, and trying to drag out a situation that I believe most fans are tired of hearing about. And for the fans who continue to call in WFAN and the like and slam the move, it's time to move on. Get over yourselves. The Mets fucked up the Randolph firing, no doubt. But let's not forget that Willie was doing a lousy job, and Willie deserved to be fired. We don't need a puffy by-line from Willie about it, we don't need stories about how only now, ...
