Guest Aero Report post Posted June 20, 2002 Good rant... You know, during that "Instant Replay" Controversy was my favorite Vince McMahon quote of all time... George Steinbrenner makes the suggestion that any replay official that takes more than a minute to make a call should be fired, on the spot! Then, the camera cuts back to Vince, and he says... "Wait a minute George, what do you mean fire him? Like, from his job!?" No Vince, he meant literally set him on fire... anyway, Vince's look is priceless!
