The Official 'Fire Willie' Thread

It had to begin sometime, why not now?

Yeah, it's early. But I contend that pennants are lost in April as well as September.

I was a big Willie supporter, but not now. Castillo doesn't hustle and is the worst 2nd spot hitter in the League.

Throw Delgado anything offspeed on the thrid base side of the plate, and he'll swing and miss. He is now a mistake hitter exclusively.

Smoltz is a very good pitcher, but we made him look great today!

I do not like how things are looking..

The day after the last game of the season last year is when he should have been canned.

Of course I never wanted him hired in the first place.

What does Charlton Heston, Panasonic 50 inch plama, the best Rolling Stones songs, the greatest drunk, and Steve Buscemi have to do with the Jets?

Saw enough of Willie Randolph last season to know he is a terrible Major League manager. Ugh! He can take that no-urgency, always laid back demeanor straight back to the American league. The facts are that he couldn't stimulate his team last September and that his players look flat coming out of the gate this season. Willie sucks.

What's too funny (or sad) is that regardless of the season, JI has indeed turned into OT.

Off-season or Week 6.
