Valadius Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Tracksuit gets the first question after Burkhardt.
seawolf17 Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 I don't like how he keeps saying "he." What, we can't hire a female manager?
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Author Posted October 29, 2010 "I can appreciate a fiery manager. I think a fiery manager is quite desirable."
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Author Posted October 29, 2010 Managers should be analytical and intuitive.
seawolf17 Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Franchise has "tremendous upside potential." Sounds like something Bill Simmons would make fun of Hubie Brown saying.
Valadius Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Is that guy from New York One named "Buck Michigan"?
G-Fafif Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Damn, he makes not immediately booting Ollie and Luis sound almost reasonable.
seawolf17 Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Alderson says he knows what OBP is.
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Author Posted October 29, 2010 I'm enjoying his gravitas.
Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket Guests Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Good question, Waldstein.I'm all jizzy
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Author Posted October 29, 2010 "Homegrown players are very important. Not only from a financial standpoint, but from a fan standpoint."
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Author Posted October 29, 2010 Who's this "Ed" who's asking a question? Could it be the AOL Fanhouse guy?
seawolf17 Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Refers to "Rick-o," not "Ree-co."
seawolf17 Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Great. He's been working in Santo Domingo. That means he's only going to sign Latin players.

Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Author Posted October 29, 2010 The current question is from the Chinese press! Will there be Chinese players on the Mets in 2011?
Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket Guests Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Amazin he has an answer for her.
seawolf17 Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Next time a kid asks me what he can do with a history major, I'm telling him he could run a major league team.

G-Fafif Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Queens-based media asking lousy questions.
Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket Guests Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 He's yet to say "knowwhati'msayin"
G-Fafif Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Underpinnings of his answers seem to be 1) I read everything written about me; and 2) don't believe everything you read about me.
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Author Posted October 29, 2010 He doesn't like to be "mindless."That's a good sign!

seawolf17 Old-Timey Member Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 I want Bobby V, in fake mustache/glasses, to stand up in the crowd and ask about specific future manager plans.
