Here's To Joe


an excerpt from crooks and liars
Taking a break from politics for a minute. C&L readers know I’m a huge Yankee fan. I have been one since the 60’s when the Yanks were in last place and Mickey Mantle was my hero. Torre winning his division was a big ‘Suck on This” to the new generation of Steinbrenner’s. They had a huge tribute when the last game was played at Yankee stadium and there wasn’t even a mention of what Joe Torre did for this franchise. As long as he was the manager the Yanks won 4 world series titles and played in six World Series while making the playoffs every year of his management. To omit him was a very petty gesture and their claims that it was an oversight is ridiculous.
