NEW YORK -- The Yankees have made it a point to tread delicately regarding Bernie Williams' future this winter.
But with Spring Training drawing closer and no contract offers yet from the club, Williams is accepting the idea that his 16-year career with the Yankees may be over.
Williams made his first public comments of the offseason to the Journal-News of Westchester (N.Y.) for Thursday's editions, taking a break as he pursued one of his other great passions -- jazz music -- as a special guest performer at a suburban New York club.

"Part of me says if they wanted me, they would have made an offer by now," Williams told the Journal-News. "When you play this game for a long time, you take things for granted and think it won't end. But the harsh reality of it is, it will."
Bernie Williams Gets Them All Home with the Bases Loaded
against the Toronto Blue Jays, Yankee Stadium.
globalEyeNews Footnote:
Apparently the Yankees don't get it. With the Bombers having bombed over the past few seasons, failing to get to the big dance mostly because of inadequate pitching, they appear to be in grand denial. Even at 38, Bernie is still a major component of that infectious PINSTRIPE PRIDE, the intangible Yankee chemistry that it takes to go all the way. Playing paper chess with Cashman Cash for players won't ever deliver the goods in a lifetime of trying.
