Marly RiveraESPN Writer Managing partner Hal Steinbrenner gives a vote of confidence to Aaron Boone as manager of the New York Yankees. Steinbrenner: "I am aggravated, frustrated, angry. But that will not push me to a knee-jerk reaction." "It's aggravating... maddening. It has been tough to watch. It's not the product we expect and it's not the type of play they expect themselves." "The majority of the responsibility lies with the players. They are the ones on the field. The majority of the blame lies with them." Steinbrenner described the most recent team-only meeting as "fiery." ...ummmm, Hal...you can't fire the fucking players.
There's an old Country Tune by Johnny Horton with a line saying "it's the same old tale that the crow told me. When the "Big Three" it's all bah humbug. After last nights debacle even the most optimistic Yankee Fans have little faith in the '21 Season being successful.
And because Hal "doesn't get it", there will be no firing of Trashman or BaBoone. Horrible trades and bad contracts will continue. There will be no Joy or W.S. in the Bronx. Hal himself needs to sale his Dad's team and legacy! He's done Yankee fans no justice!
