Yankees Will Honor Bernie

From Yahoo! Sports:
Hank Steinbrenner said there’s not an official plan yet, but former Yankees center fielder Bernie Williams will be honored by the team. “Obviously, Bernie is special to us,” Steinbrenner said.
I'm certainly looking forward to Bernie Williams day. He was a great Yankee and certainly deserves his place in Monument Park.

Hopefully
Cashman's comments this offseason don't cause Bernie to decline the invite to his day at The Stadium, the way he declined to throw out the first pitch in last year's ALDS.

That's good that they finally are bringing themselves to honor Bernie. He was a very important part of the team for many years. As for Cashman, I'm very surprised. He usually exudes class. Maybe he kept quiet with the press for a good reason.
