    Replace Chicken with Torre and you have ESPN coverage in a nutshell.

    Its almost as bad as that one day that AROD's birthday was the top story on Sportscenter. I figured with them blowing it in the playoffs every year now that the coverage would die down. Looks like I was dead wrong.

    You think its bad now, wait until they hire a new manager. :rolleyes:

    Probably why the Indians lost. ;)

    God bless Joe Torre! Thanks for 12 great years!

    12 post season appearances
    6 pennants
    4 World Series
    Over 1000 career wins with the Yankees

    Telling the boss to shove it! Priceless!

    Why should that be a news alert, though?

    Because the New York Yankees are the most important thing on earth, that's why.

    If aliens invaded earth right now, reporters would race to Torre's house for his reaction.
