Terry Collins lashes out about the Mets

It only took two months before Terry Collins blew his top over the play of the miserable New York Mets.

After New York lost their second straight crushing loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates, Collins had just about enough coming off as testy and angry during his post game press conference. WATCH IT HERE!!!

Now this was not in the ilk of Lou Pinella, or for that matter, Mike Ditka, Dennis Green, or Jim Mora Sr., but it was clear that the Mets manager had steam coming out of his ears.

"I try every night to figure it out," Collins said. "I don't have the answers. I'm wringing the rag dry of coming in here and having to look at (the media) and sit here and have you look at me like a stinking fool. ... I'll take all the F***ing blame you want to dish out."

The most interesting part of Collins rant was that he promises that the atmosphere will and must change, even if he has to get different players. Now that's the spirit. That has been the Mets big problem the past four years. They have gone through three mangers and none of them have been able to figure it out. It falls on the shoulders of the players, who don't know how to execute on the field of play.

You have to appreciate Collins passion, but let's remember this is the same guy that rubbed people the wrong way in Houston and Anaheim for his short temper, which led to his firing. And keep in mind, Collins was not the first choice for this job, that was Clint Hurdle, who has done a fabulous job managing the same Pirates who are smacking around the Mets this week.
