Johnny Damon reacts to Joe Torre's casual knife

Johnny Damon told a NY Post reporter that Joe Torre's characterization of him in his smash-hit NY Times best seller was insulting and motivates him to show Torre up this year. For example:
  • "Let's get rid of him.""...
This piece is a perfect example of Bob Klapisch's description of the Torre money-maker as 'casually insulting:'
  • From Bob Klapisch column, 1/29/09, NorthJersey.com on the Torre book:

"Each one of these depictions reveals a casual, insulting quality to Torre’s personality that seems almost incomprehensible."...

  • It's not just that it's a clubhouse tell-all, it's the indifferent tone that accompanies his knife. From NY Post column by Kevin Kernan, "Damon Targets Torre over Book," 6/10/09
