Willie Randolph and Tony LaRussa are collectively retarded

I like the attitude Randolph brings to the Mets. I don't like some of his decisions but he is WAY better than Bobby Valentine. Oh yeah, Art Howe kinda stunk. Bobby was worse.

So here comes Brandon Looper in with the game at 2-0, Mets leading. Now, the Mets fans HATE Looper because he stunk last year. Really stunk. Tucker is on first with two out. Looper has already shown that he is wild. 2and 2 count. Looper is most likely going to walk the batter. Looper has already thrown to first like seven times, even though Tucker had no lead and was not a threat to steal. Here comes the 2-2 pitch. Unexplainably, Tucker steals. Unexplainably, Larussa has his catcher have a pitchout. The catcher (who is the best in the NL at throwing out runners, mind you) throws the ball into center field. I'm like, "what the fuck?" Why the hell is he having Tucker steal, when Looper is a time bomb waiting to explode and if he gets thrown out, you are letting Looper off the hook!!! Not to mention, at this point, Looper can't find the plate for strike 3 if he's safe. Why would LaRussa think that Randolf would be stupid enough to steal there? Maybe he's a genious genius (spelling?) for knowing that Randolph would steal him. I doubt it.
