You may not have always agreed with the way that John Gibbons ran the Toronto Blue Jays when he was the manager, but I have a hard time believing there weren’t many people that didn’t like him as a person.
There are professional athletes and even coaches that seem larger than life or even from like they’re from another planet, but not good ol’ Gibby. That’s not to say that the man didn’t excel at his craft for a long time, but there was always a sense of a down-to-earth attitude from the man who served in two different tenures as the skipper of the Toronto Blue Jays.
