amazing collection. any true yankee needs to have it. so much information, goes beyond the field to show you the true player

Great item for all Yankee fans. The history in brief of the Greatest Sports Legends that played for the Yankees

If you're a Yankee fan, then this is the DVD package for you. The biographies are not life stories in the classic sense, but closer to character studies of their subjects, using a combination of actual video and interviews (with the tiger, his teammates, friends, family, and reporters). In some cases, you get a look at their lives beyond baseball, like Bobby Murcer (broadcasting, charities), Rich Gossage (motivational speaking), Bernie Williams (music). Other focus on their home, like Mariano Rivera (Panama), or Willie Randolph (Brooklyn housing projects). Some highlight their connections -- Reggie Jackson's first meeting with Mickey Mantle, Phil Rizzuto in the pantheon of Yankee shortstops, or Ron Guidry coaching in spring. You also get the sense of the pain and endurance of players and their families: Ellie Howard breaking racial barriers, Lou Gehrig and ALS, Thurman Munson and his family -- with some truly touching family photographs of Thurm with his kids, as the opposite of his public grouchy persona.

The discs also give coverage to Yankees who would otherwise not get their time: rattling through stacks of pitchers, for example, and Hall of Famers. There isn't enough video of guys like Bill Dickey or Allie Reynolds to get them full-length biographies, so these serve as salutes and nods to these heroes.

The insights from teammates and opponents is fascinating...modern sluggers compare styles with Roger Maris and Lou Gehrig, for example. Opponents recall incidents in the 1978 World Series, Ron Guidry describes the Reggie-Billy brawl of 1977, and supporting players like Brian Doyle are insightful.

There is also video from the archives for fallen players: Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams describe their 1941 seasons, Babe Dahlgren, Mickey Mantle, and Catfish Hunter turn up through the miracle of taped interviews, and when they're not available, in come historians like David Halberstam and sportswriting icons like Maury Allen to add depth.

I cannot recommend this package too highly to a Yankee fan.

Of course, a Boston Red Sox fan would not be too happy with this.....

I loved the fast shipping and i really loved the price of these dvd's, well worth it.I love the great discounts I'm able to get off ebay.If you want to relive all the excitement of a yankees fan then these dvd's are a keepsake.I'm glad i have these dvd's to show my kids what i experienced as a yankees fan.These dvd's come with alot of cool extras not just the players bio's :-)

This is about the yankees and mmmm its really a great dvd....brought back alot of memories and had alot of things taht i did not know about the yankess........Worth every penny if you ask for my money

Excellent buy for the price!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good seller, quick transaction.

Old time Yankee fan, don't like the new guys, too greedy, selfish.

This is the combination of a bunch of singles. In different order of the individual discs, but seems the same.

Good stuff, still looking for old players, ie '60's

worth every penny! If you are a yankee fan this is a must buy for sure. From Babe Ruth to Derek Jeter it was very insightful i learned things even i didnt know. favorite episode on the set would have to be the thurman munson episode as well as the elston howard episode. The footage from the old days in yankee stadium was awesome. Truly worth every penny!!!!!

LETS GO YANKEES!!

Outstanding. A must for any Yankee fan young or old. This DVD gives great insight into many Yankee greats. Don't miss it!!!!!

Awesome visual biography of the yankees and their storied history......highly reccommended for any yankee fan

Whether you are a Yankee fan or not, Yankeeography is a worthwhile investment for any baseball fan. It is a collection of player profiles that includes footage and commentaries nI'd never seen/heard before. There have been several Yankee dynasties and this collection provides some hints why. Who wouldn't want a franchise with Babe Ruth AND Lou Gehrig in the line-up or M<ickey Mantle, Roger Maris, and Yogi Berra?

Nevertheless, I would've like to see some team (vs. individual) coverage. The Yankees have been in some great pennant races that would make for great drama.

RARE FOOTAGE OF ALL YOUR FAVORITE YANKEE PLAYERS - BABE RUTH, LOU GERHIG, MICKEY MANTLE, YOGI BERRA, BILLY MARTIN, THURMAN MUNSON ETC., I LIKED THE BOBBY MURCER AND BIILY MARTIN THE BEST . BEATING BOSTON FOR 86 YEARS . . MUST HAVE FOR ALL YANKEE FANS.

we love it because we are yankee fans and it was a great fathers day gift. It is packed with stories and information, if you are a yanks fan you should get this set!

Superb RARE interviews and clips from Ruth, Gehrig, DiMaggio, Mantle,Berra,Rizzuto,Ford,Maris and others. INSIGHTS into players games, attitudes and highlights of career. Hall of Fame Yankee players special with INDUCTIONS speeches along with praise from others added to classic Left and Right Handed Pitchers in the Yankee History. Surely, as for me a GEM of the History of the best Team of the Century. From Vintage to todays highly overpaid and pampered players as to glimpses of their possible HOF nod.
