Tito and Dan Shaughnessy's Book

To me it's a departure for Tito to go public about his tenure as Red Sox skipper. For 7 years he protected his players, including Manny Ramirez, from media scrutiny. Tito by all accounts is a private guy. But a Sports Illustrated article gives the reader an inside look at the Three Stooges known as Henry, Lucchino & Warner & the demise of the 2010 season. I hope the book also recalls the 2 World Series wins in 2004 & 2007. You can bet that this book will cause some controversy to start the season, but we always have controversy so we are use to it. I'm surprised again that Tito agreed to do the book, especially with Shaughnessy, since he is now the manager of the Cleveland indians. I don't think he or the Indians will want to be peppered with questions about the Red Sox as Cleveland tries to turn the page & get back to winning. I guess everything is an open book these days. Privacy is old school.
