SP Times: Zimmer irate after Yankees string out Torre

The latest LoseZip® Explorer Style View…

“It was sad the way it was handled,” Zimmer said. “What has the man done? It speaks for itself. To let him sit there for 10-12 days is bullc—-, and then all you hear about is ‘keep Torre, don’t keep Torre.’ ... Do things in a better way than that. You’ve got so many people over there now involved, I don’t know.

“Where do they stand now? They’re going to interview six managers? Let them have a good time.”

“How tough is it to fire somebody if you do it the right way?” he said. “I’ve been fired. What’s so bad about that? You call someone in, tell them you want to go in a different direction, and that’s it. In baseball somewhere along the line most people get fired in some capacity.”

Well, that's the city that forced its baseball team to take "devil" out of their nickname. Must be a swell place.

At least they left the "c", to let the readers know Zimmer is only an amateur potty-mouth.

torre wasn't fired, his contract wasn't renewed. big difference.

i'd agree, though, that it should have been done quicker.

Zimmer irate? How much damage can a retarded gerbil do? Even one with a steel skull.
