Kevin Keegan: Dennis Wise will report to me

"Kevin Keegan insists Dennis Wise will answer to him and not the other way round as speculation mounts as to how the two personalities will gel at Newcastle.

Wise was appointed executive director of the Newcastle United Soccer Club yesterday, a move that caught many by surprise and has already prompted suggestions that Keegan's authority is being undermined just 14 days since replacing Sam Allardyce as manager."

Dennis Wise:

I would never have remembered his name. He's just that schmoe.

There aren't many The Wire characters whose first and last names I remember. In addition to Dennis Wise, I think it's just:

Jimmy McNulty
Clay Davis
Omar Little
The Bunk

The mayor always is Tommy Cinzetti in my mind (after the family-style Italian restaurant, Cinzetti's).
