Remember when Cam’ron said: “I hang with Steinbrenner just to get my cash turn/ I call my car Jamal it, get Mashburn/ Crash, burn, rest in peace Dale Earnhardt/My cousin died the same way, he hit that turn hard.â€
Yesterday, Steinbrenner met with Yankees Manager Joe Torre, but no decisions have been made whether or not they’re bringing the man with the large nose back for a 13th season. I say keep the man. Sure, the Yankees have been a postseason bust the last few years, but here’s my reasoning. The Yankees need pitching. If they get the pitching they need (minus bum a** Roger Clemens), they’ll be aight with Joe Torre. No need to get rid of him at all.
I look at it like I look at LL Cool J in hip-hop. Like my man Joseph Patel said on an MTV debate once, LL’s ratio of good-wack music lately has been the latter. LL’s a legend, but lately his track record has been wack. Headsprung, the joint with J-Lo… need I say more?
Same with Torre. He’s a legend, a Hall of Fame manager, but lately he hasn’t been getting it done. But if LL's allowed to stay in the game and keep recording, Torre should be able to stay in the Yankees’ dugout. Chuuuch!
