Yankees manager Girardi gave pep talk to Cowboys: report

Joe Girardi isn’t just giving out pep talks to his baseball team.

The Yankees manager went to visit the Dallas Cowboys in training camp Monday in Oxnard, Calif to deliver a speech, according to ESPN.com.

“Just be the best you can every day,” Girardi said of the message, given on the team’s off day before a two-game series against the red-hot Dodgers.

“That’s what you prepare for. We obviously all strive to win championships, but to me, it’s a day-to-day thing that you have to go through.”

Cowboys receiver and New Jersey native Miles Austin was excited to hear from the skipper of his favorite team.

“That was a great deal, man,” Austin told the website. “I was just glad to meet him. He said some great things to us. I’ve been a Yankee fan since he was there [as a player] and since I was born.”
