Once upon a time, the President of the United States made an annual speech called the
State of the Union address. It was an important speech, but it had a bad effect on the self-important, which is to say, everyone else who liked to give speeches. Some governors said, "What a swell idea. Let us give
State of the State addresses." Some county executives said, "What a swell idea. Let us give
State of the County addresses. Some mayors said, "What a swell idea. Let us give
State of the City addresses."
And so it goes:
Quote:
Manuel promised such alterations on his first official day as the manager, in October, and he expanded upon them Saturday morning during his state of the team address.
