Does Hank Steinbrenner have the Intestinal Fortitude (balls) to set a deadline for a trade?

He already failed when he and Cashman set a deadline on negotiating with A-Rod.

    He is a nobody. Just some guy with a rich daddy. the league has to think this guy is funny, going around thinking he is a big shot. Did'nt even earn the right to be there just inherited it. What a joke.

    He's a rookie right now at what he does and has made a complete fool of himself. I'm taking this as a learning experience for himself. The value learned -- keep quiet till your 150% sure of yourself. When he set the deadline for the Santana deal I was like what the heck are you doing? Did you not learn from your A-Rod mistake? The way I look at this -- he's a rookie at what he is doing like the rookie's on the baseball field in which he basically owns. He will eventually learn from his mistakes and hopefully turn out to be a great "Mini-Boss"!!

    A deadline is meaningless in a negotiation, if there is a deal to be made that will benefit the Yankees you can bet that Hank will be the first one to the table.

    He will cave like he did with A-Rod if the Twins decide they want to entertain his trade offer.

    He'll be 2-2 in going back on his word. Great start in his new position.

    Hey, at least he didn't throw a temper tantrum like little Theo did with Lucchino three years ago, then leave the stadium in a gorilla suit.

    Did you mean testicular fortitude? I believe you have your euphemisms mixed up.

    Intestinal fortitude is GUTS, not balls.

    That said, I think he has neither. . . .

    Source(s): Thanks to Beliprick, Boston's more like Cheatersville, USA.
