[QUOTE="804brown, post: 1810118, member: 29553"] Belly said Hoff had won 200 games. Nonetheless, to continue the baseball analogy, Tim has a winning record as our leader. He has proven himself tough enough to take on Brown at contract time and in getting back the Maspeth 250. On this subject, you want to talk about lack of leadership. Back when the incident FIRST occurred, Tim called the IBT. But if Hoff/Hall were strong and cared about those members, they would have called Atlanta and demanded they rescind the firings or Hoffa would allow Tim to pull the ENTIRE local. That would have been the ballsy thing to do. But Hoffa/Hall NEVER stand up to UPS. So they sat on their hands. Until Tim and our board made things happen on the ground, then they sent Hall and SOB. But by then it was too late. The public campaign to shame UPS worked. UPS. Tim agreed to take Liam out of UPS facilities and UPS agreed to reinstate the 250. [/QUOTE]
