... ESPN: Steinbrenner backs Torre, but expects turnaround The season is still very young, but up to now the results are clearly not acceptable to me or to Yankee fans, Steinbrenner said in a statement. However, Brian Cashman, our general manager, Joe Torre, our manager, and our players all believe that they will turn this around quickly. I believe in them. I am here to support them in any way to help them accomplish this turnaround. It is time to put excuses and talk away. It is time to see if people are ready to step up and accept their responsibilities. It is time for all of them to show me and the fans what they are made of. so who actually wrote the statement ?

... That was nice and all for Jeter to say what he did...saying my treatment was "unfair." The criticism I'm taking is "unfair" It's also "fucked." But I don't need your cliché responses, motherfucker. Go be Captain Pussyman, or whatever the fuck it is that you and Damon joke about on road trips.
