VIDEO: Mickey Callaway Gathers Reporters for Bizarre 2nd Press Conference to Apologize to Tim Healey

Mickey Callaway personified the New York Mets' underwhelming, laughable first half of the season when he cussed out the club's Newsday beat reporter Tim Healey following Sunday's disheartening loss to the Cubs, with very little provocation. In response, the second-year manager spoke at a scheduled press conference Monday afternoon where he outlandishly refused to apologize to Healy. And since that went just about as poorly as Brodie Van Wagenen and Co. could have hoped for, Mickey elected to call a follow-up conference to accentuate the fact that he apologized to Healey in their brief one-on-one meeting.

Talk about too little, too late.

Callaway had the perfect opportunity a few hours ago to set things right by acknowledging that his initial actions were insulting and embarrassing, while actually publicly apologizing.

But nope. Mickey looks significantly more nonsensical and disingenuous by calling a follow-up presser. And he only did it because of how sternly the initial conference was ripped.

The sad thing here, however, is that we aren't the least bit surprised at Monday's developments. This is just the level of incompetence that Mickey and the Amazins have embodied in 2019.
