Around SBN: Has Kentucky Improved Since the Non-Conference Season?

Why the Yankees Win...

... and the Leafs don't.

It's all here in a nutshell: During the press conference by Joe Torre (who led the NY Yankees to the post-season 12 of 12 seasons he was the manager), he said, referring to George Steinbrenner:  "I thanked George Steinbrenner for trusting me with his club. The goal for me has always been to make him proud of what we did, even though he was never satisfied, which is why he kept that drill going all the time — he felt he owed it to the people of New York to have a winning team." [bold mine]

I don't need to explain the contrast between that attitude and that of Maple Leafs Sports and Entertainment.
