Mets Fans Speak... And They Want to be the Manager!

Well, we asked for it, and we sure got it. We asked Mets fans to submit their original content to us and sound off on what they thought of the Mets, to basically give the average Mets fans a vehicle where they could become "published authors".

The articles keep coming in, and here's one from loyal Met fan Shawna Shea who says... well... you just have to read it for yourself.

Personal Plea to Jeff Wilpon from Shawna:

How in the world does Jerry Manuel still have a job after the debacles of games that have happened especially since the All Star break? He doesn't know this team. We have a great base of players (for the most part and we have a few that need to take the short bus home!) and yet they lose game after game after game.

I propose that you hire me as your manager and for half the salary of Jerry Manuel. With the guarantee that we will win games and make a great play for the pennant. Can't guarantee the Series at this late stage. My only stipulation is that I have my own 3 consultants and I get to pick the bench coach of MY choice. And that choice will, of course, be Bobby Valentine.

It's a great plan, you save money on his (Jerry's) salary and you get fannies in the seats. Those fannies in the seats will buy food,drinks/beer, and souvenirs. You MAKE money on the deal.

In all honesty, you couldn't get a better deal. You need a fan to run the show since you are obviously NOT a baseball fan, no offense intended, you are a business owner. If you look at the great and most memorable owners of teams you will notice one thing: They are fans of the sport, have a great head for business and will do anything to win. Owners like George Steinbrenner, Mark Cuban, Rick Hendrick, Richard Childress and Jerry Jones. I love their enthusiasm for the sports they own and love. That's why they are successful. You need somebody in there who loves and cares about the sport and wants to do the silly little thing called WIN!!! I am available immediately.
