possibly 2nd if they trade rob cano to the marlins for pierre
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

 :-D  where'd you hear that one?
they won't trade cano.

hunt, what is your view on the following opinion? Brian Cashman is the worst executive in North American professional sports.
"The drunkenness, the violence, the nihilism: the Eagles should really be an English football team, not an American one." - Financial Times, London

hunt

it's retarded.

you'll probably say, "how could he not win with that payroll" and you'll ignore the fact that steinbrenner has called most of the shots & spearheaded most of the bonehead moves.

If George calls the shots then what, exactly, is the point of Cashman? ???

run day-to-day operations....handle negotiations....try to talk steinbrenner out of his bonehead decisions (even though it rarely works).  steinbrenner tends to step in & make the final call when it comes to the big money deals...there's little cashman can do about that.

So, Cashman isn't stupid as much as he is weak.

BigEd76

He re-signed for 3 more years, so he must enjoy being Georgie's beeotch...

in comparison to the owner of the team...yes, he is weak.
as for re-signing...i'm sure steinbrenner promised to stop meddling. :-D

Who knows? Perhaps there should be an off-season thread for the world champions? ;)
