The idea that Joe Torre's group might gain control of the Dodgers scares the hell out of me because he seemed to work well with Ned Colletti. If Ned stays, nothing really changes. Ned reminds me of the way my mother was when she played cards. She never took a card from the face-down deck (the unknown quantity) when she could take one from the discard pile face-up (the known quantity). Colletti is a nightmare worse than any Halloween movie. Why take a chance on a rookie when you can get an over-the-hill veteran? Rookies can either improve dramatically or go bust. Old players are already busted. You might get what you had last year, but usually you get less and less.
We need a rookie owner with a general manager who has something to prove. Please, please don't let Joe Torre loose on Los Angeles again!

This post is more clichéd than the clichés used to describe Torre/Colletti

I don’t I’d seen the card-playing metaphor used for Ned before. That said, the kids today have no idea what that meant.
