just what team do you most associate manager's with ?

i ask this because i saw a picture on the front of espn.com of the Seattle manager ..... and the first thing i thought of was ... 'hey, that's not Lou'

i was just wondering if that happens to anyone else, i guess i was just so used to seeing Lou in that spot it took me a second to remember

i suppose it's like if you see Chris Reeve in another movie and you think 'hey, he's Superman'

Bruce Bochy in San Diego is one.


Can't think of any others (besides the current ones such as Torre, Cox, La Russa).

Sparky Anderson will forever be Captain Hook on the Big Red machine to me....

Billy Martin had success with the Twins, Tigers, and A's but he is obviously thought of as a Yankee manager.
Dick Williams managed the Mariners, Pades, Angels, and some good Expos teams, but you think of him as the Oakland A's manager of the skipper of the Impossible Dream Red Sox
Zimmer will always be associated wiht Boston, even though he also piloted the Cubs, Rangers, and Padres.

See, Sparky's a Tiger in my book. Odd, isn't it.

Tommy LaSorda is a Dodger through and through - but then, I don't even think he managed anywhere else.

What about LaRussa? A's or Cards?

Or White Sox for LaRussa? I say Cards.
