Billy Martin was right about everything...Steinbre nner was dead wrong!!
Billy Martin may have been a difficult man to love, but he was a brilliant manager who learned from the best, Casey Stengel himself. He demanded, and deserved the respect from his players. Any manager who leads a team to back-to-back pennants should not be fighting for his job.
Steinbrenner was, and still is, a huge @$$hole.
