Maybe Millennials don’t remember, but we once had a mayor who exhorted a crowd by bellowing, “How am I doin’?”
After a while, it took on a rhetorical tone. The self-certain mayor of Gotham was Ed Koch, who knew that New Yorkers love confidence, success, and winning.
To that end, Yankees manager Joe Girardi doesn’t possess the same bluster as the former mayor, but it might be fun to ask the question for him.
As the Yankees skipper enters his 10th season of lording over the dugout, he’s slowly qualified for comparison. Once you’ve had this gig for a decade you enter the realm of some pretty high-end names.
