Lifers

The newspapers are full of Joe Torre explaining why he had to walk away from the Yankees.

Javier is explaining why the rest of us never could.

“We’re all Yankee lifers around here,” he says. “Joe Torre was great for this team and I’m sorry he’s gone. But this is our home and our team and we’re not going anywhere.

“We don’t have choices,” Javier continues. “We work hard jobs for little money and we are Yankees.”

Lifers all the way.
