At Last We Shall Have Our Revenge on the Jed-- Collins

Rumors abound that the New York Mets are seriously considering TERRY COLLINS to be their manager. I was asked my thoughts about Collins and his tenure as Angels manager by the SBNation Mets blog Amazin Avenue. I didn't hold back on exorcising those demons of '99. Link to Story.

I didn't blame Collins.

Still don’t.

fine blame me...

i went to California in Summer of 1999. (not the Summer of 69)

doesn’t help I went in 1997 also (with Marcel Lachman or whatever his spelling was)

+1 on the article

i don’t feel like signing up for the (not so) Amazins fan site.

*SHUDDER*

There is nothing else to say about Terry Collins. At all.

Only part of the problem.....

The article details the many shortcomings of Collins and the players of the era, but also references the comments of team “executives” Bill Bavasi & Tony Tavares…..with two such spectacularly incompetent leaders at the top, who could expect anything but chaos below them……only when these mooks were run off did the Angels begin to build a professional organization.

excellent point

they were the incompetents who HIRED and FIRED Collins.
