Willets Point Old-Timey Member Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Didn't M. Donald Grant try to argue in a press conference that Seaver was actually NOT the Franchise, which while literally correct, proved that Grant was out of touch with the fans and the needs of the team.

G-Fafif Old-Timey Member Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Howie Rose has told the story often of Grant complaining to Lang (credited with the nickname) that "Mrs. Payson and I are the franchise!"
Willets Point Old-Timey Member Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 Oh yeah, that's even more out of touch than I remembered.
