1. Good for Joe, he is finally out from under Steinbrenner's thumb.

2. Hew went out with dignity

3. As an O's fan, I can't stand the Yanks, but even I like Joe Torre

Good guy. Told Steinbrenner where to shove it.

[Danger Mouse]

4. Though I hate the Yankees, Torre was a great manager...

and I always respected him.
Steinbrenner's attitude has been frankly obnoxious and disgusting. I hope that they never see another world series win while Steinbrenner owns them.
It would serve that asshole right.

5. I still don't get it. 12 seasons, 12 playoff appearances, 6 pennants, and 4 series wins.

8. I would bet on it

Who wouldn't want him?

[sniffa]

10. oh, i know that, but do you think he's done?

just gonna ride into the sunset, or do some booth work?

i'm sure his phone is ringing aLready.

12. He used to do color for the Angels, before he was the Yankees manager

I think it would be a good fit for him to be the Dodgers manager.

15. Last night during the Sox game, the idiots in the booth

were suggesting he'd take a year off, then maybe try to get back in the Cardinals organization, I believe.

[dembotoz]

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

14. And we still won't care!

[Initech]

16. I'm not a Yankees fan by any stretch of the imagination, but I think Torre got screwed in the deal.

hang his head....
