Who is the Ted Koppel Look-A-Like
Know I don't belong here because I'm a lifelong Yankee fan (born in '49 and Fordham Grad ... went to way too may games instead of class during my college years). This is a one-time super need question! And don't even want any reference to the 8 games played so far this year but..... who is the guy who sits in the front row , directly behind home plate, at every game. Guy is about 62 years old, has Robert Redford hair, looks like Ted Koppel, never shows any emotion, and never wears any Sox gear. But he's definitely a true fan, rain or shine until the last out. Always see him when the Yankees are on TV. Then started checking out the Fox and ESPN games when Sox were on TV ... and guy is always there. Never with a female companion, but always there. Last game vs Yankees was one of the very few times he had a tie on. Who is he? Some corp exec that goes to every game as an account rep? A trust fund fan? Has the best seat in the Park so the season has to be expensive. I hate the Sox, I hate the Pats, but admire this guy for his loyalty. But who is he? Watch any game and you'll see him. By the way, get rid of that young guy who also goes to every game but spends the entire time talking on his cell phone... sits about three rows behind Robert Koppel).

I know the guy
I call him No-Smiles cause he never stands or cheers for anything on the field. I’ve asked others and have been told that he works for the Sox. Can’t quite remember a name or exact job title. Hopefully someone else can fill in the info.
Are you sure we’re referring to the same person? The guy I trying to figure out looks like Ted Koppel with Robert Redford hair. Your picture has a resemblance, but not sure if it’s the same fan. Without being perceived as a stalker, do you have any better photos? Real curious because he’s always there!
Speaking of..
Did you know Ted Kopple was born on Febuary 8th, 1940? That he has won 8 Peabody awards?
Also Robert Redford protests Prop 8 at his film festival.
8 is a nice number.
Once again, more informed.
