With the World Series over, baseball teams shuffle their operations, starting with management and coaches. The Red Sox decided to let Grady Little go and now it looks like Don Zimmer, bull to Pedro Martinez's matador, may be leaving the Yankees organization. Why? He really hates George Steinbrenner. Zimmer told reporters, "When I say I won't be back, I won't be back. They could have a day for me. The answer would be no, and only because of [Steinbrenner]." Gothamist would be sad if Zim left the Yankees, because who else would look as styling at he in the Cliff Huxtable style sweater while sucking on a cigar?

does anyone remember baby herman from "who framed roger rabbit"? all respect, but i'm developing a theory that zimmer is a pissed-off toon baby in disguise...
rion, you are so right on.
The worst part about him getting thrown to the ground was the human-interest stories.. we got to see him cry, and then we got to see him "OK" at a restaurant having a splendid fine red table wine with his wife and now this. You know, I never knew the man before but for some reason I just gotta feeling they ain't gonna ask him back.
Nice...uh...sweater?
At least it's symmetrical.
hey, that black/asian guy is in the personals section again!
and zim's sweater is a little better than the type of sweater that all nba players seem to have. it has a vertical woven pattern. it's really ugly. if you've seen it, you know what i'm talking about.
good. i like that black/asian guy. he should be ALL TIME gothamist featured personal ad.. like until he gets married off or something. not that gothamist isnt already good-looking, but he makes it even better.
Interesting...
Love the Zimmer foto, wonder who the photograper might be? ,,ahemm
