Observing Blogs 2

So today I read a post by Regis Courtemanche titled "News: Brewers Hire Willie." Willie Randolph was the manager for the NY Mets until June, when he got fired because of a collapse of the team near the end of the 2007 season. Now the news is that the Brewers hired Willie Randolph as their bench coach, with an agreement that if Willie ever got a managerial offer from another team, he can take it. Willie was still under contract with the Mets until the end of this upcoming season which meant he would still be getting paid even though he was fired. The big controversy that readers commented on this post was about whether or not the Mets should still pay Willie the amount he's suppoed to get paid until his contract is over. There were also comments about how Willie would do as a bench coach, as well as how the Brewers will be playing in this upcoming season from fans who favor Willie, as well as those who didn't favor him too much. I have yet to post a comment on an entry, and I am not too sure where I stand with this whole matter of Willie Randolph.
