An O'Neill type player is what this team lacks, the fire and intensity. There's no fire and intensity from Matsui, Bernie (LOL), Sheffield, Giambi, Alex Rodriguez (now on his third team.... hmmmmmm), etc., etc. The 1996-2001 team had far fewer so-called superstars. But they had fire and intensity and they hit in the clutch. So go ahead, spread your anti-Torre venom all over the internet (two places that I know of anyway). Torre isn't the reason they lost the game.

The truth is only 3 players stepped it up last night for the Yankees: Matsui, Jeter and Proctor(believe it or not). The rest of the team played horrible, except maybe Cano, he was trying.

O'Neill for manager!

The players play and they either do it or they don't. Oh for a Paul O'Neill on this team.........

Jeez, what is it with him and Ruben Sierra? How many rings has Sierra won for him? Are the Yankees just a vehicle for his magnificent career? The only good thing that would come out of the Yankees being swept would be that it would irrevocably seal Torre's fate. And, unlike a lot of fans, I am not that concerned about who replaces him. At this point, a bagel with a shmear could out-think him. He is pathetic. But, I do think he'll finish 2nd in the Manager of the Year voting because, when you think about, it's just another way for the national press to demonstrate their complete disdain for the Yankees. So when a Ken Rosenthal or Skip Bayliss says this has been Joe Torre's best managing job, they're really saying "Yankees suck."
