Controversial Quotes From Sandy Alderson's Blogger Conference Call

Last night, the Mets held a conference call between GM Sandy Alderson and a group of bloggers. You may have seen the duplicate tweets on your timelines last night as bloggers each battled to be the first to quote the GM on Twitter.

While most bloggers accounts match up I noticed a disturbing trend emerging. It seems that many of the bloggers were completely ignoring some of the more bizarre, controversial, or downright inflammatory things that Sandy was saying.  If you read other accounts it's almost like he didn't say any of these things. Clearly, the Mets collective of chosen bloggers is covering for the GM with the hopes of keeping their access and all the free steak sandwiches that come with it.
