From the UniWatch blog. An interview with the guy who used to sew on jersey nameplates for the Giants and As:

 

"UW: Were the any players who were a real pain in the ass?

 

SS: The worst player I ever dealt with was Joe Morgan. Oh my gosh. He was a prima donna. One time I was doing some work for the Giants — I did some work for them, too — and I walked into the clubhouse. Now, Wilson was making the Giants’ jerseys at the time, and they had apparently sent a size 44 jersey for Morgan, when he wore a size 40. So I walk into the clubhouse and Morgan just lets me have it, cussing at me, he throws his jersey at me, he goes, “Hey you, this is your fault! What kinda [expletive] is this? Fix my [expletive] shirt!” And I went nose-to-nose with him and said, “Hey, you don’t ever talk to me that way.” He and I nearly got into a fistfight. A few players had to break us up.

 

UW: Aside from that being no way to treat another person, why would he even think you were responsible for his mis-sized jersey?

 

SS: Because he knew I worked the jerseys, so in his mind he probably thought any problem with the uniforms was my fault.

 

UW: Did he eventually apologize?

 

SS: Oh, no. No way."

I don't recall the last time I read an interview that boring.

 

One does not read Uni Watch because Paul Lukas is a terrific interviewer.

Not at all.

 

I just wanted to let many more people know how big of a douche Morgan is.
