When the New York Yankees offered legendary play-by-play announcer John Sterling with an 83-inch TV as a retirement current in April, followers weren’t impressed.

“Now, I am unable to consider all of the fuss and feathers about my retirement, and the Yankees staged a stupendous day,” Sterling instructed Jimmy Traina on a current episode of the “SI Media With Jimmy Traina” podcast. “My children had been all there, and it was nice. I did not need any items!”
