Are you serious!!!!!!

Even as a diehard Yankee fan, I absolutely love these 2. I've heard Jimmy's "borrowing the uniform" line before and I just think it is truly special for such an iconic player and legend to understand a fanbase so completely. You don't always see that kind of connection between superstars and their cities, but both of these guys have that in spades and that is why they will be remembered forever.
