Five Casey Stengel Quotes About Amazin Mets

Was there ever a better marriage between a manager and a team than Casey and the 1962Met? Here are five of Casey's funniest quotes about that team.

Five Casey Quotes about Amazin Mets

1) "Trade him while he's hot."
---after Don Zimmer broke out of a 0-32 slump with two hits in a game

2) "The Mets have shown me more ways to lose then I knew existed."

3) "The only thing worse than a Met game is a Met doubleheader."

4) "He's the only defensive catcher who can't catch."
--on Chris Canizzaro

5) "Lyndon Johnson wanted to see poverty so he came to see my team."

Looking for Bright Spots in 2010:
It is early but Met fans are in full panic mode and how can we not be based on the last several years. However, I am still remaining someone optimistic. I can not remember two games in a row all of last year where they put together two great starts and Johan Santana was not involved in at least one of those games. Pelfrey and Ollie pitched better games in their second starts of the season then they did all of last year.
