Pumps' Perplexities

I was in Yankee Stadium when the subway was a nickle and
the deposit on a Coke bottle was 2 cents......My following the
sport of baseball faded from mental view many years ago.....
These new days of "sport" are not like the olde......

If I were Joe Torre, the current New York Yankee team
manager, I would just close out my contract and enjoy my
life, in the forthcoming years......This poor guy had "done
his thing"......He is, in the eyes of many, a hero......He has
brought the Yankee team into the World Series Play Off
Games for year after year.......He has done his best with
the "talent" that has been hired by others......"Talent" who
get paid millions of dollars a year, if they win or lose.....
These days a "manager" can do but so much.......

Hey Joe, just walk off into the sunset.....George and Hank
(Steinbrenner) will hire someone else......If the new guy
does not work out, then maybe they will pay you the "good"
money to yell at some "overpaid, pompous playboy" that
plays baseball in the daytime, again.......At least you will get
a few good years of vacation out of it.......Pumps
