Torre has always been class....I mean how many players have you seen win a batting title as a third baseman and then calmly pick up the catchers gear and step behind the plate as competently as they come. And then the guy just makes the payoffs the last 12 years in a row. Joe gets a pass from me.

how i was about landry. never liked the guy, hate the cowboys, but could NOT believe that jerry jones would just unceremoniously fire the guy when he walks in the door.

I love to see the Yankee demise as much as the next, especially in light of the Yanks fans (you know the ones with the false sense of entitlement) roaring about the Mets collapse and the alleged always impending Red Sox collapse.

But, as much as I hate them, I like Joe Torre. He's a classy guy, and has had quite a run. It's kind of sad to see him treated as such the last few days, he deserves a better ending.

Oh quit it with the nice guy comments. Nice guys get fired everyday.

The guy is getting 7 million dollars a year for what? I have no sympathy whatsoever. Let him cry while rolling around in his pile of money in the bank vault. Boo hoo.
