I read a book as a child that changed my life forever. The book was, "Winners Never Quit" by Phil Pepe published in 1968. It was a book written for men. It was a book about being mentally and physically tough--with grit, courage, and determination. Vince Lombardi wrote the foreward and introduction which was too good not to share. As our youth suffer today, many without sports and in-person learning, let us look back on history...the importance or reading a book for inspiration and playing sports is difficult to quantitate, yet we know for sure--both are important.

Derek Jeter. Mariano Rivera. Jorge Posada. Andy Pettitte. Tracing the careers of four instrumental players who turned around the New York Yankees, Core Four shares behind-the-scenes stories from their early days together in the minors through the 2012 season, and follows them on their majestic ride to the top of the baseball world. At a time when the Yankees were in free fall, having failed to win a World Series in 17 years and had not played in one in 14 years -- the Bronx Bombers’ longest drought since before the days of Babe Ruth -- along came four young players whose powerful impact returned the franchise to its former glory. Phil Pepe is the author of more than 50 books on sports, including Few and Chosen Yankees: Defining Yankee Greatness Across the Eras, The Yankees: An Authorized History of the New York Yankees, as well as a biography of Yogi Berra, and collaborations with New York Yankee legends Mickey Mantle, Billy Martin, and Whitey Ford. He is a former Yankees beat writer for the New York Daily News and a past president of the Baseball Writers Association of America. The legendary Phil Pepe filled the Clubhouse with fascinating stories about the Core Four, Yankees history, and a touching memory about Jackie Robinson and Branch Rickey. Listen and enjoy...
