So far I’m loving this guy:

“Once you step into an authoritative position, you’ve got to be an authority. That’s the bottom line, and that has to be accepted. I’m not here to make friends or for people to like me.”

“I really believe that our team plays good for five, six innings, then all of a sudden, where’s the focus and intensity?”

“I don’t care how much you squiggle and squirm.”

and is this one real?

“Last night, Reyes. She acted up. I brought her home with me. She had a day off.”
