He just said he was ready to be treated like a human being. What's the big deal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest FrigidSoul Report post Posted October 31, 2003 Zimmer said Steinbrenner didn't treat him like a human being (or anybody else for that matter). I expected him to retire though as he was talking about spending time with the grandkids. I also got word of this before ESPN.com, go me! heh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have you been eating a calzone George?" Sorry, I had to mark for the Sienfeld reference. Let the old guy be happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
