Maybe McCourt charges Joe to park at Dodger Stadium. Gene – I’m not sure if Torre needs the extra money for yoga and the beach. Maybe McCourt charges Joe to park at Dodger Stadium.

If he were to write about good things that happened in the lockerroom, then it would never get mentioned. For the last 10 years the media has written a thousand stories about what went on in there, whatwent on between Jeter and Arod, etc. Torre just filled in the blanks. Art Donovan has made a post-football career out of telling stories about what happened behind the scenes and he is praised. I just don't figure how it's ok in one circumstance and not in others. All unwritten rules suck. Just how far does this unwritten lockerroom go, Larry? If he were to write about good things that

Half of these guys are on steroids that you cannot even test for (just compare A-Rod and Pujols's measurements to Schwarzenegger when he was winning all of his Mr. Olympias [and openly juicing]). These people are nothing but a bunch of bunch overpaid degenerates. They do not deserve any consideration, or for that matter our time and money. I hope they and their teams implode. And as for Wells, he ate himself out of baseball. Maybe if he wasn't such a fat bum, managers would've tolerated him a little more. Get over yourself, Gene.

I have always thought that Torre was overrated as a manager, since he couldn't win in the last six years with by far the largest payroll in baseball. I guess being the highest paid manager isn't enough; he needs some extra spending money for yoga and the beach. Kudos to David Wells. He certainly was not an exemplary player, but he got this one right. Joe Torre has violated the cardinal rule of the locker room: what goes on in here stays in here.
