I agree that Torre doesn't treat everyone the same. If you're a team player, a gentleman and ahard worker, he treats you well. If you're a loud-mouthed, egocentric clown, who gets into fights in diners, he treats you like, well, David Wells.

By the way, the Mets are firing Omar and Jerry, the greatest comedy duo since Abbott and Costello. What took them so long?

And a more positive random thought: I've been watching Monday Night Football since I was a kid around 1972, and I've not seen a better broadcast team than Tirico, Gruden and Jaworski.
