The Los Angeles Dodgers yesterday named Ned Colletti, a former assistant GM with San Francisco, their new general manager, having already been rejected by Theo Epstein, John Hart, Pat Gillick and numerous other luminaries in their quest to replace the fired Paul DePodesta.
If Colletti's goal all along was to get quoted and/or mentioned in every Peter Gammons column for four years, and then parlay that into a GM job, he has thus succeeded.
Because he'll clearly be "cleaning up a mess" in Chavez Ravine, David Pinto compares Colletti to The Wolf, from Pulp Fiction. So I guess the message to Dodgers fans is "let's not start sucking each other's dicks quite yet."
