At Fenway, and George was in the stands... led to one of Jimmy Willams famous quotes.

The fans finally got fed up and thew stuff on the field (not something I support).

Jimmy I think finnally got tossed arguing plans.

Steinbrenner after the game blamed the fans reaction on Jimmy Williams, that if he didn't argue the calls, the fans wouldn't have done anything.

Jimmy Williams response "When georgie porge speaks, I don't listen".

I must admit, I miss Williams, he was a decent (not great) manager and was very old school, hated the modern press (TV-Radio). Everything was "Managers decision" he never hung a player out.

His 2 responses to reporters I lmao at the most.

"Well, if a frog had wings it wouldn't bump it's booty"

Then a give take with a reporter.

JW - "Oh yeah, what team did you coach?"
Reporter - "Well, umm... I coached braintree little league"
JW - "Well, I was a brain treee surgen".
