Steve Phillips and Matt Millen: Why Do We Listen?

13 Oct 2009

I have always heard that the NFL and MLB jsut continually recycle coaches and general managers, so i kind of understood the system, but now ESPN has gone off the deep end.

They employ two, not one but two, of the worst general managers in the history of their respective sports. Steve Phillips did a brilliant job as the Mets GM, landing such top talent as Mo Vaughn and driving the team straight into the ground. ESPN was quick to hire Phillips as an MLB expert but why? His judgement has been proven worthless

Matt Millen on the other hand built a team so atrocious that they set the record for atrociousness. 0-16, never been done before. But do not worry guys, ESPN says he is an expert so we are all fine.
