GM BACKS GRAHAM

By Jake Skikowski [New York Daily News]

Just hours before first pitch tomorrow at Qualcomm Stadium, GM Joe McIlvaine put to rest any doubts on whether or not Graham would stay at manager of the team. Despite controversary flowing across the media- cheers and jeers from the mets community, and front page headlines of the New York Times, McIlvaine confirmed Graham is to stay.

"Hes our guy, we wanted him after the season, we wanted him all offseason, and we're not letting him go over a minor infraction." "We already spoke briefly about the situation, he hung up on me when I brought it up.... but I'm pretty sure he's sorry about it, so it's good enough for us." Graham is expected to not be available for comment before the game.

The Mets community is torn- half are terrified their children are being exposed to some drug abusing monster. "His attitude is shit." Keisha Roberts said. "I dont want my kids to look up to some fool that gets high all the time." Other fans however were out in full force in support. "Finally.... a manager with some balls, a real firecracker" Lionel Masterson said.

Either way you look at, Graham isn't going anywhere..... get used to it folks.
