The Polls are Closed

A whopping 967 of you responded to the Joe Torre/The Yankee Years poll - and we have to give a big thank you to MLB Trade Rumors, who picked up our story on the Yankees 25 man roster and sent a lot of traffic our way. Thanks guys!

The choice of "No way Jose, er Joe" with a resounding victory. 40% of you said you would not read the book. We can't imagine that Torre ever thought he would get the negative feedback that he's gotten from many Yankees fans, us included.

31% of you fell into the "Maybe" category, which is where we are at. Our thinking is will get the book out of the library, rather than contribute to Joe's bank account.

And finally, 29% of you can't wait to read the book ("Yes, can't wait for it!"). It is dealing with a lot of the players and teams we love/loved, and that is a definite draw.

Thanks again for taking part in the poll!

Is Joe Torre on your Must Read List?

We want to know, will you read Joe Torre's "The Yankee Years" or are you going to take a pass. Answer the poll and let us know!

Right now, we're going with maybe. Just like some movies are better on DVD, maybe this one is better out of the library than the book store.
