As expected, the Los Angeles Dodgers not of Anaheim will officially introduce Joe Torre as their new manager during a Monday morning press conference. The storied organization rids itself of the managerial albatross that was Grady Little, and lands a future Hall of Fame manager with four World Series rings, a dead brother Rocco, and no prostate. Dodger fans, commence looting or shopping, whichever is more suitable to your income bracket.
Your new manager: Joe Torre! [Blue Notes]

So, would I face your opprobrium if I put on black-face & ransacked Koreatown?
I can only assume that an OD of laxatives wouldn't count.
Joe Torre will commence to being no better than a .500 Manager with the Dodgers. Just like he did at every other managerial job he had that wasn't the Yankee job. He truly is overrated as a manager.
Scott Proctor beware
Typical Dodgers' arrogance - timing the announcement to overshadow the MLS quarterfinals. Shameful.
Poor Beckham
@UkraineNotWeak:
Pretty much every baseball manager is overrated as manager.
graddy little did blow with billy baldwin @ the viper room... i seen it
The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated!
How did this post sneak below the intro??
Damn you and your timestamps, you brigand!
Viper Room is for pussies. The real hard-core spot to party is Andy Reid's Drug Emporiuum!
Seeing Torre smile is just flat out creepy
Good god, is that Zombie Torre in that picture?
@Cassifras: Agreed. There's a certain Herman Munster-esque quality to it.
Torre has now left one Steinbrenner for the millions of Steinbrenners also known as "Dodger fans." Godspeed.
Joe's really just excited to watch all the lesbian porn that came in the gift basket that Tommy Lasorda gave him as a welcome present.
