Casey Stengel Says........

Casey Stengel, former manager of the Mets and Yankees was once asked how he keeps harmony on a baseball team of twenty-five players. He said, and I want this understood that I am paraphrasing him, "there are ten players who hate me, ten who love me, and five who don't give a sh**. The trick is to keep the ten who hate me away from the five who don't give a sh**." Casey was a wise man, a great manager, and more importantly a great leader.

Unfortunately, Dear Principal John Deacon has none of these qualities. In fact in my years of teaching there has always been factions in a school like Casey mentioned there are on a baseball team. That is until this year.

Except for the mindless few in my school who are so far up in Dear Principal John Deacon's colon, I have never seen a principal or known of a principal so despised, or having a lack of respect in a school as is Dear Principal John Deacon. I mean to get this hated so quick, by so many must be some kind of new DOE record. The most pathetic part of it all is that Dear Principal John Deacon actually thinks it is loved and respected. I guess it comes from that warm fuzzy feeling of having its colon cleaned by the mindless, soulless sycophants it surrounds itself with.

But like rats running out of a burning building or a sinking ship, so will these colon cleaners of Dear Principal John Deacon run away and not only turn on one another when the ship starts to sink, but turn on Dear Principal John Deacon when the implosion happens. And when this happens every teacher in the school will pull out their chaise lounge, get the binoculars, and watch as Dear Leader John Deacon and its colon cleaners all cannabilize one another and point fingers at each other. Sweet.
