Billy Martin.... He was a classic guy.
Wish I was younger to have seen more of him.

Billy Martin is what baseball needs today - a manager who plays to win every damn game and isn’t afraid to stand up to a player.

Passed way too damn young - he was never afraid to call bullshit out. Will never be another manager like him.

Managed 69 Twins to 1st AL West pennant.

Then punched out the GM at a hotel lobby

Fired
