Jerry Manuel Replacing Willie Randolph

[Guest AG/DC]

Please answer how you felt at the time (before any Manuel-era games had transpired), and answer independently of your opinion about the method of firing and independently of your opinion about the coachal changes.

feelings of modest approval

[TransMonk]

I voted indifference because that's how I felt 3 days ago.

I'm more cautiously optimistic now.

[willpie]

Modest approval at the time. I'm drifting toward strong approval.

[nymr83]

modest approval, looking back he probably should have been fired October 2nd 2007 after the collapse so that the circus wouldnt have been around ever since

[Elster88]

Neutral/indifferent.

[Zvon]

I approved modestly.

Manuels got experience.

Costs us nothing.
