Double Dipping Sportswriter

Common sportswriter knowledge of the day. "That guy will make a great manger one day." BTW, Pete was an outstanding manager considering what he did with 1/2 the talent.

Sparky was let go? I say he stepped down at the right time. The guy who replaced him was 0 for 3 in the playoffs. His next assignment only improved Sparky's fine reputation as a manager.

Sparky wrote in his journal: "... I think they made a big mistake when they did that. Now no one will ever question me again."
