Joe Torre's 6 Secrets of Admiration

Can't buy headlines like this in a town like NY: "Ever a Class Act, Yankees’ Torre Faces Final Curtain."
"60-Second Science" podcast via Scientific American (mp3)
Pescovitz @ boing2 brings the drop on Joe Torre's gravitas, in podcast form, viewed through the lens of Bob Cialdini, author of Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion. (It's Mike DeWitt's and Charlie Munger's and, seemingly, David Pescovitz' favorite book. I like it too.)

You got that right, but sixty seconds doesn't do the list justice.

It'll be interesting to see who the Yankees bring in. Joe's shoes will be awfully hard to fill...

"big shoes"

Too right. Remember the days of "Clueless Joe" back in mid 90s? Funny how the worm turns in an R-Complex.
