    Sounds like he should have been fired a long time ago:

    I would argue the opposite. He hasn't seen it all. He's seen nothing but a bunch of baseball games.

    I wonder what his wife thinks. I notice she isn't quoted.

    Yankee tickets are not cheap. Where the hell does he get the money to go to 81 games a season??

    I guess he save most of his income only for that.

    Probably from the OT he put in doing the work he was supposed to do while he was at the game.

    I doubt this story's accuracy. Over 38 years, he has never been sick?

    Is there any way to prove it one way or the other?

    Well, he has 284 days every year that the Yankees aren't playing in which to be sick. And it's 3 hours of sitting around as opposed to 8 hours of working and concentrating.

    And it's not that inconceivable. I haven't been truly sick since 1974 (day of the famous USC comeback vs. Notre Dame) after delivering newspapers in the rain for a few hours.
