TORRE TRASHES GRAHAM IN NEW YORK POST

by Sammy Almada

New York City -- New York Yankees manager Joe Torre wasted no time coming to the defense of his new slugging threat Jason Giambi. Giambi was publicly criticized last off-season for signing with the evil empire over the fan base that adored him.

Torre called Graham's off-color remarks of his players recently "distasteful", then later went on to call Graham a "hateful pariah." "Graham seems like the kind of guy who doesn't get out alot, spends his nights alone watching youtube videos and eating cheetoes," Torre said. "He doesn't have a clue how to manage a big leauge team, he would rather lash out at his team than take the time to sit down and figure out a solution, he is a hateful pariah."


Graham fired back saying "I don't have a clue? I watched the World Series last year, Joe. It was one of the most mis-managed game sevens I have ever watched. You don't have trust in your bullpen either Torre, using Rivera for the eighth and ninth inning every game, it's a bitch move."

The usually soft-spoken Derek Jeter jumped to his coaches defense. "We dont wan't to get wrapped up in Oakland's shit show," Jeter exclaimed. "We have Jason's back, all the way." Giambi got wind of the news while packing for Oakland. "Oh wow...," Giambi said, "I didn't know things were getting this wild, well, I have one thing to say to Oakland's fanbase: I WILL CRUSH YOU."

Fire up the grill, get a six-pack, and tune in, the fireworks are going to fly in Oakland.
