We Now Have Mickey Callaway Confronting Reporters And Jason Vargas Threatening To Knock Them The Fuck Out In The Mets Locker Room
That’s my manager! That’s my ace! That’s the kind of fight I want to see out of my team! Granted I would muchhhhhhhh rather see it on the field so the Mets stop losing every other game in utter heartbreaking fashion because the bullpen, manager, or both fucked up. But beggars can’t be choosers.

The Knicks will ban reporters from their press conferences if they don’t like the way they cover the team, the Mets players will beat the fuck out of reporters if they don’t like the way they cover the team.
The Knicks are the Winter Mets. The Mets are the Summer Knicks. Time is a flat circle and it get
