I watched it. Terrific tribute for the best relief pitcher of all-time and a darned good role model for anyone.
HOORAY Chief. HOORAY Mariano. Both are “one of the greatest”.
I am a slightly obsessive Mariano Rivera fan. It was a great day for me to happen to be off work and watch it live on YouTube. Trump and Rivera. Together. Priceless.
And I encourage everyone to watch it. When he talks about how important it was for him to learn English, I was bawling. I’m wearing my 42 Jersey to a meeting tonight.
Corny?!?? You betcha!!
I saw it. President Trump was very gracious and explained Mariano’s career very well.
When Mariano spoke he was even more gracious and appreciative. He explained that he was very grateful to have become a naturalized American citizen. And he said did the first thing an immigrant should do when they come to the country is to learn to speak English.
