I was thinking the same thing BB! As usual, you hit the nail on the head. It seems that everybody gets good AFTER they leave Milwaukee. The Brew Crew is my National League team and I think they're on the verge of something great right now if they can keep their core together.
As a die hard Yankees fan, Steinbrenner doesn't have the support or the cajones to fire Torre. When Joe leaves, it will be his decision, not a decision by The Boss. Got some bad news today when we lost Girardi and Mazzone gave us the thumbs down. With a bullpen and a centerfielder, we'll be back in the playoffs in 2006 loaded for bear!
