He fully expected Simmons to play the off-the-record card, but Simmons calmly leafed through the transcript, handed it back to the reporter and said, "Have a party." What isn't in the article and is rarely mentioned is that Ted wouldn't speak to reporters at all during the 1982 season until after the Brewers clinched the pennant. That is funny, "have a party." I also had no idea that Simmons would not speak to reporters during 82 (I was born that year). Did he not get along with the media?
