Imagine being fired at 3:00 in the morning. That ish would be cooooolllddd-bloooooded. Well, Willie Randolph doesn't have to imagine. The Mets fired him at 3:15a.m. this morning , even though they beat the Angels, 9-6, last night.
Randolph had a 302-253 record in his tenure with the Mets. That's the second-highest winning percentage in franchise history. The first black manager in NY baseball history was set to make $2 million this season and $2.25 in '09. Bench coach Jerry Manuel will take over now.
SOHH WAS IT THE RIGHT MOVE TO FIRE WILLIE!?
On one hand, yes the Mets (34-35) have been severely underachieving, but look around. Teams are down on the whole.
MY THING IS...WILL THE FIRING OF WILLIE MAKE THE METS WIN!?
I'm not SOHH sure.
Moving on, the Yankees lost their ace Chien-Ming Wang till at least September, after he hurt his foot running around the bases Sunday in Houston.
Afterwards, Hank Steinbrenner (The Boss's Son) said the NL is retarded for still having no DH. I agree, man.
WHO THE F WANTS TO SEE A PITCHER BAT? IT'S THE GAYEST THING IN THE WORLD!
Finally ... take a good look at the Celtics' Big 3.
Will they be bathing in champagne tonight!? Make the call, homies. If they do clinch, I hope we get to see KG's wifey.
THATS RITE LA FANS TIME 4 U 2 GO BACK HOME WITHOUT THE RING AS I PREDIVTED. TRY AGAIN NEXT YEAR. STILL NO RING WITHOUT SHAQ. I KNOW THAT PISS U OFF BALLSY
@ Ballsy,
the Finals will be over 2night!
That's fucked up what the Mets orginization did, but Karma is a bitch so it'll come back on them. The finals WILL go to a game 7, but not just because of a guy named Kobe Bean Bryant, because of the commish, mark my word. This finials will solidify as Kobe as one of the greatest ever to play the game especially from coming back from a 3-1 series deficit, just watch the history unfold itself. By the way, L.O. and Pau BETTER come play tonight...
Yea it was f''d up thing to do by the Mets. But it wasnt really 3 am, its west coast time 12:15 am, if that makes a difference.... Minaya shoulda got fired. Jerry Manuel? Just the name sounds gay. I blame everything on Aaron Heilman, he should burn in hell alive. But on a lighter note, fuck Boston!!!
Minaya is a punk....straight up and down. The Mets will still not make the playoffs, then Willie will get hired to another team next season, and do 10 times better. How can you fire the manager when you're closer gives up 3 straight save opportunities (I know they fired him for more than that, but you know they put those loses on Willie)....and shouldnt Bobby Cox be fired? The Braves havent sniffed the world series since 99. Boston will take it tonight, pop bottles, then Kobe's wife will leave him cause he's a loser.......get well Wang, we'll need you come October...GO YANKEES!!!!!!!!!!
THE YANKS FIRED TORRE SO ANYONE CAN GET CUT
IM ACTUALLY INTERESTED IN THE SERIES NOW BUT IF KOBE CANT GET SOMEONE TO PLAY PIPPEN WHILE HE PLAYS JORDAN THEY WILL LOSE.
I WANNA SEE RAY SHOW SOME EMOTION HES HELLA SOFT GET FIRED UP DAM ITS THA FINALS

ALWAYS IN GRIND MODE
that shit was weak of the mets, but what u expect from that weak ass franchise? the muts is garbage & willie will b aight somewhere else. Wang getin hurt was another heavy hit for the yankees but its aight. & for the record fuck boston!
I usually don't believe in this kind of shit, but I'm starting to think God is wearing Purple & Gold. First the Nuggets' team bus catches fire on the way to staples.Then the Spurs have to sleep in their plane sitting on the runway in New Orleans. Now Boston's plane gets a cracked windshield at LAX & gets delayed like 9 hours. Tonight is going to be a test of wills, bottom line. I think the Lakers gut this one out & force a game 7, where anything can happen. Losing Perkins is bigger than a lot of people realize, & I didn't see the killer instict from the Leprachauns on Sunday (except Paul - he was tryin to end it). Tonight the Lakers have to win or go home. Boston has other options..
Go lakers 2 the top. Fan 4 life win or lose but they got it.
@ Ballsy
" I like the dude, but think it's time to give Willie the boot!?"
It looks like you got your wish Big Homie! They shit canned and it's about time. Now they can come out of shit status and go back to at least mediocrity.
Enough about that.
Personally I think the Finals will be over tonight, but it wouldn't surprise me going 7 with us winning one way or another. Yes losing Perkins is big, but it would be a bigger issue in LA not at home.
(this is not directed at every New Yorker, just the ones like the faggot I'm about to address who for some reason thinks that the world centers around them being that their from NY.....ah those days are over)
@ NYC_minded
I'm starting to think that you're a either a super Boston groupie, or a classic bitch ass hater. It's almost like when a lil boy has an infactuation with a girl, but doesn't want his " other boys" to know about it so he trashes her. You give off that 8 yr old vibe...lol NY is a city of "used to be". The big city of dreams is all but a distant memory!!! You know it, and alot of others know it too. Shit other New Yorkers will tell you the same. If you would have told me that in my life time I would hear of a NATIVE NEW YORKER risking his life sticking a Red Sox jersey in the newly renovated Yankees stadium, I would have laughed and said "yea right". Well it happened and it's a clear example of the blantant obscurity NY is facing. People just don't give a shit anymore. Again, don't be pissed off because NY has been on the back burner in everyone's minds for over a DECADE!!!! No one gives a rats ass about nothing coming out of the NY. Face it, your teams are losing, your strong hold on rap has faded away, and tourism has been down pre and post 09/11. So I don't know what lil shine you're trying to get outta of the "fuck Boston" statements but keep this in mind you pussy ass bottom feeder, no one is checking for NY in regards to sports.....period (which is what this blog is about anyway) lol When is the last time the Yankees, Knicks, Jets, Islanders, Bills, Mets had a winning season that didn't produce a first round playoff exit??? The first two digits in the year didn't have as 20 that's for sure....lol I'm pretty sure you know Boston's current win streak in sports bitch nigga, the past decade it's been championship parade city out in this bitch! In NY, not so much...lol Shit with the exception of the Giants win, the only parade poppin out in that city the Puerto Ricans run......lmao
I Love True New Yorkers. Not these fake ass bums that are still living in the 90's....lol
Faggot ass Boston dick rider. If we didn't matter, you wouldn't keep talking.....lol
same goes to FUPAYME
bitchass nigga!!!
Get ready to dead ESPN for at least a week. You may get sick to your stomach watching the parade....lol
the lakers are not trippin, we got bynum, who needs old ass shaq, we was not even suppose to make the playoffs, we were not suppose to be in the finals, we not trippin, boston is. All the money they spend to get the big three all stars, to our 1. we not trippin we prepare for the future. The laker oldest player is fisher.........The pressure is on the big three to win, if not oh oh to danny ange money........................HI HATERS.
There will be no parades in Boston- at least not until October maybe. The June parade will be this Saturday, starting at 2nd & Figueroa, down Figueroa to 11th & the stage set up at the front of Staples, the same way they did it in 00'- 02'. It will be 102 degrees and we'll be eating Mexican Icees & 50 cent tacos from the truck, drunk & on the verge of rioting - just like L.A. is supposed to be. When we take game 7 at the Garden, that'll hurt your soul forever. LETS GO LAKE SHOW!!!
cool it, if u think ny fell off then boston was never on, nigga u gona talk mad shit about nyc & then b like peace 2 real nyers? fuck u & fuck boston on
YANKEES BITCH. Check out the new Kassius kaes viedo on youtube that shit is crazy.
