I only fault him for his charitability – the guy who oversaw the creation of Windows Vista shouldn’t just be fired; he should be taken out and shot.

At this point, I guess the Mets would be considered a charity case. Shouldn’t take too long for Fred to blow through $200M.

As a new yorker glad to see this. Not a fan of the mets but they have become a mess after looking like a team on the rise a few seasons ago.
