A one year deal with a 3 million pay cut? Wow that was a slap in the face, they should have just said don't come back.

It seems as though that's what they did.

They probably wanted him gone but to save face wanted it to come out as his decision. That really isn't all that uncommon.

Good for Joe, he deserved better than what he got. Even if it was a decent offer, at 1 year he should throw it back in their face and say no. Hopefully this results in more players to leave.

I love it. After all the talk, the Yankees offer him a deal to come back, but with a huge pay cut, and Torre tells them to shove it. Good for him!

Torre to The Boss:

Take this job and shove it

I ain't working here no more

My woman done left and took all the reasons

I was working for

You better not try to stand in my way

As im a walking out the door.

Take this job and shove it

I ain't working here no more

 

Ive been workin in this factory

From now on fifteen years

All this time I watched my woman

Drowning in a pool of tears

And Ive seen a lot of good folk die

Who had a lot of bills to pay

I'd give the shirt right off of my back

If I had the nerve to say

 

(Chorus)

 

Well that foreman, hes a regular dog

The line boss, hes a fool

Got a brand new flat-top haircut

Lord, he thinks hes cool

One of these days, Im gonna blow my top

And that sucker, hes gonna pay

Lord I cant wait to see their faces

When I get up the nerve to say

 

(Chorus)

 

(Instrumental)

 

Take this job and shove it

Excuse me while I go tell my dad(yankees fan) and watch him piss his pants with joy.

I thought the implication was rather clear :wink:

My dad feels Torre made wrong decisions and has taking away too many chances for prospects. He also is pissed that Kevin Thompson never got a shot and that he left starting pitchers in a game too long. I'm not my dad so that's all the info I got.

Yanks management are turdnuggets. They basically humiliated him into quitting.

 

Total slap in the face.

 

Hopefully Arod, Posada, and Rivera give management the finger on the way to free agency.
