Sublime I normally agree with your views on most sports issues. But if you truly believe that any manager, regardless of makeup/temperment/personality, who made the exact same in game calls/moves over the past decade would have won the same amount of WS's had the same amount of success, handled the media and Steinbrenner as succesfully as Torre than your a complete idiot.
