Zoot Allures - Frank Zappa

Two reasons:

1. "The Torture Never Stops"

2. I don't have a record with a song titled "Grady Little Is Fricken' Moron".

Man, he really blew it - so did Dusty with Prior. Both of these idiots left the stud in way too long. Will they ever learn? They have these things called "bullpens."

Mark, feel free to keep posting - I'll fix anything that gets screwed up. We can't figure our why your computer is the only one doing that.

The job Little did was almost as bad as Zimmer's in '78! At least Little got us to the playoffs. Two of the worst managers in our Red Sox long and sorry history. When Pedro threw Zim to the ground...it was the happiest day of my life!! Finally got the Gerbil back for what he did to us during the 1978 season. Remember him leaving Hobson in with the bone chips in his elbow and unable to hit or throw the ball to first base?

Zim also got a worn out, demoralized, and beaten down club to win its last 8 games to close a 3-1/2 game gap with a fantastic Skankees side to force the Bucky Dent playoff, and it's not Zim's fault that BF Dent and his corked* bat hit a pop-up that Comrade Stalinbrenner's hot-air* blew over the GM. That said, Pedro's Ole wins him this month's John Wensink Award.

*forget it he's rolling

If Little is such a bad coach and makes the wrong decisions why is it he is in the minor league hall of fame, a major league coach and makes a million a year?

never answer a person who calls a "manager" a "coach"
