I've heard Lasorda is quite the character. I've never met him but I do have an interesting collector's piece. I have a photo of him face to face with a NL umpire. He was giving the ump the old riot act. I mean he was raging on this guy. I sent it to the ump (can't remember his name right now) and the ump signed it and sent it back. Then I sent it to Lasorda. He autographed it also and addeds the inscription, "Be happy!". If I had a scanner I would show a pic.
