What crackhead voted
Ozzie as 1st in the AL.
Damn you Buster Olney and your Ozzier man love!
I brought sexy back, but they only gave me store credit....
I was thinking the same thing.
Total crackhead.
His crack was nothing
Compared to the guy who tossed a second place vote to Trey Hillman. Either someone clicked the wrong button, or that guy on some serious drugs.
I feel the need, the need...for speed!
Hey, I never got to vote.
I demand an investigation!

Me. He was the only manager I voted for in either league.
Why? Because he’s the only one I’ve really heard talk about in-game strategy in extremely intelligent ways without cliches and traditional assumptions. (Read: he’s sabermetrically inclined.) I don’t buy into the general sentiment that the better teams and most surprising teams have better managers.
