New York — One thing everyone in baseball knows about Sandy Alderson, he is not the sort of man who takes guff from anyone, for any reason. The ex-Marine, ex-Harvard Law School, ex-Dartmouth undergraduate has a history of success in his life because he established early on, the formulas of work ethic and team-building that [...]

New York – The Mets fired Omar Minaya and Jerry Manuel. After the past four years of utter futility on the field and bad chemistry and character off the field, these moves were no surprise. They probably should have been made a year ago but if Mets management is nothing else, they are exceedingly loyal [...]

Mandel's Musings: Mets A Direction-Less Franchise |
read this item
New York – It’s not by accident that the New York Mets, a franchise initially known as lovable losers when they were born in 1962 and who maintained that losing tack until the Tom Seaver years commenced in 1967, have turned into losers, once again.

New York – Interesting that the Knicks believe Mike Miller is a suitable alternative for Joe Johnson. Can he shoot? Sure. Can he do anything else on the court? Uh, not really. Will he score a little more in D’Antoni’s system? Who doesn’t? Does anybody believe David Lee, nice player that he is, will go [...]
