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.

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. Let’s get going. Let’s go out and win and bring a world championship back to New York. That’s what I want.” If asked to predict his release word for word, I'm confident I would have hit 70%. Classic BS. Let me rephrase -- Torre and Brian will be fire soon.

The New York York Yankees slow start this season has, of course, led to speculation that owner George Steinbrenner will fire him. After what he has accomplished in the past 11 seasons, however, Torre deserves better than to be on the hot seat after one bad month.
