I grew up as a Don Mattingly fan. I felt bad that he played all those years and the year after he retired, the Yankees start winning the pennnant on a consistent basis. I thought it was cool that ol Steinbreener hated Mattingly’s moustache, but he refused to shave it.
Mattingly was great; it was a shame he never won a Wrold Series. It was nice to see Michael Strahan get one with the (football) Giants in his last year; he’d never played for another team, and he was a great player.
