Quote: That’s Our Business
In standard fashion, Willie Randolph told reporters after tonight’s embarrassing loss that he is not angry with his team’s performance because he believes that his team is playing its hardest, they’re giving him 100 percent, and he is confident they will turn it around.
When asked if he talked to his team after the game, regarding their poor play, he said no, adding that even if he did he wouldn’t tell reporters about it.
…look, folks, if he is dejected, or angry, etc, he’s not going to show it…do yourself a favor, and stop wishing he would…as i said this morning, from what i can gather about him, to be angry or rattled, to willie, would be a sign of weakness to his opponents and to his players…instead, he is going to project confidence and strength, even if he truly feels weak…he could be the angriest man on earth right now, angrier than you or i, and we’d never know it…
…and that’s a good thing…as long as also deals with the reality inside his locker room internally…it’s a good thing, as long as he addresses his team in some way, be it one on one, in a group setting, in a dungeon throwing chairs or in a meadow picking daises, just do it in a way that translates in better results…he could do it in private, by telegraph or on a stage in times square for all i care…just do it…do it and get back to winning…
