3. I have to admit Gardenhire is great entertainment....
Lou has had some classic moments. I felt wounded the day he left the Mariners. :)

4. I have an audio clip of him being bleeped repeatedly
in a press conference after an umpire accused him of showboating...it is classic...

He brings "profanity" to new levels in this one...I think for percentage of words bleeped, this particular clip rivaled any episode of "The Osbournes"

5. It's got to be Lou
He's been responsible for some all-time classic blowups. :)

6. Gardy gets tossed a lot, but Lou is downright insane sometimes.
I've yet to see Gardy go off the deep end like Lou has in the past. Sure, he'll thros his hat and do some wierd gestures, and then piss and moan about it in the papers, but Lou will pick up bases and throw them, kick his hat, put dirt on the plate, chest bump etc. He's good TV.

8. I am thinking - after the WS - that sweet Lou is a better color guy
than a manager, and also a better color guy than Tim McCarver.

9. Lou should be in the Hall of Fame,,,
on this basis alone. Man, how I'd love to see him in a Red Sox uniform.
