Mets: Terry Collins Legacy Managing

Dear Terry,

Hey Terry. I just wanted to thank you for your time here with the Mets as a fan. You were a professional and really wanted the best for the team and the fans. From what I could tell you put your heart and soul into managing this team. I think you wanted this to be your redemption after what happened on the West Coast when you last managed a team. I think you did well to endear a lot of folks and when fans were saying it's time to go it wasn't because you were a bad overall manager but a manager that baffled us with some of he way you used your players.

Hey Player A, I know you have been tearing it up for weeks and really seem to be coming into your own, so I'm going to bench you tomorrow because you seem like you are ready to be tired and are going to need a rest.
Hey Player B, I know you have been colder then the iceberg who wrecked the Titanic but I think you are about to break through, so I am going to put you the fourth hole for game for of the World Series.
Hey Player C, I think it's time for you to go in for your 5th game pitching straight for one batter and now I am going to switch you with Player D for a batter then Player E for two batters so he can give up three runs.

What I am trying to say is that your in game managing left a lot to be desired and baffled the hell out of me. I still can't explain some of the moves you pulled with line ups and with your "gut feelings" in game.

Even with that, I want you to know that I and quite a few Mets fans appreciate what you have done for the team and Mets fans over the years.


Thanks again,

Mediagoon

The @the7linearmy Charity Softball Results

Congratulations to the Queens Finest for winning the First Ever T7LA Softball Tournament. Okay got that out of the way.
For the most part yesterday was a fun time. Team Mediagoon got knocked out in the first round to a team that just outplayed us. I had a Montero type hiccup game where I gave up two moon shots in the first inning and I couldn't convert a play in the second to third. The scoring floodgates opened against us but we had fun playing and losing to a team that wasn't an organized team.

The BK Cyclones and Greg from the Cyclones who helped us put this together were very accommodating and put together a great event for Charity. Thanks again Greg.

I want to thank the Mets and the Social Media Team over in Flushing for donating two tickets and a hang with the Social Media crew pregame at Mets home Game next season. I want to thank my ticket Rep for donating a game Used Base to the auction. The cast at Gotham came through with some signed things and that also helped bolster the donation of $1000 that we raised from just the auction alone to give to Tuesday's Children. Thanks to everyone who bid and won.

Now on to some business. As one of the organizers of the event, I was dismayed to find out that there were "organized" teams in the tourney after we explicitly said no organized teams. Just because it was a tourney event it wasn't supposed to be for prestige of winning a trophy, but for friends to have fun in a recreational fun type tournament. I'm not going to throw any of the teams under the bus here but it defeated the purpose of the whole day. Darren and I tried to do our due diligence when we put this tourney together and tried to make sure no "real" teams were involved. Don't take this as "he's just mad because his team lost", I didn't think my team was going to go to the finals (not a knock on my team btw), I put together a team of friends that I knew would enjoy being at the ballpark and have a chance to play in something like this.

Darren and I are going to try to figure out a better way next tourney how to make sure "organized teams" don't get involved.

All in all it was a good day though, got to play on a legit Minor League field, raised money for charity and then hang out with our friends. It was a learning experience and we will be ready for the next one!
