Leo the Lip was just full of nuggets:
On Jackie Robinson:
I don’t care if the guy is yellow or black, or if he has stripes like a fucking zebra. I’m the manager of this team and I say he plays.
He can’t hit, he can’t field, he can’t run—all he can do is beat you.
On the College of Coaches:
If no announcement has been made about what my title is, I’m making it here and now. I’m the manager. I’m not a head coach. I’m the manager.
On the Dodgers:
Nice guys; finish last.
On the 10th-Place Cubs:
I am not the manager of an eighth place team.
