In October of 1997, 2001 & 2004, he might have been called a goat for the blown saves (in his defense, Mr. Torre kinda screwed up 2004 and asked the impossible of him) but he is now the GOAT!!! It has been a privilege and honor to have watched you do what you do best for 19 years. I am so happy I can talk about you, Donnie, Winnie, Reggie, Derek et al to my nephews and future kids like some spoke to me about The Babe, DiMaggio, Mick & Thurman. You were an absolute joy to watch and will never forget how you were on and off the field. To the fans of other teams, especially Boston, Baltimore, Tampa Bay and Mets, thank you for being such class acts with his retirement. You have definitely earned my deepest respect and gratitude. Enjoy your retirement Mariano Rivera! I will forever miss hearing Bob Sheppard announcing "Now pitching for the Yankees, numbah forty tooo, Mariano Rivera, numbah forty tooo!" while hearing the strains of Enter Sandman over the loud speaker. Thanks for the memories.
