"Boros himself says he is like President John F. Kennedy. 'No kidding, I really do feel like Mr. Kennedy.' Boros says with a straight face. 'The President says he fully realizes the task ahead but that it doesn't frighten him. He says he is fascinated by the challenge. Well, I feel the same way." - Sportswriter Joe Falls in Baseball Digest (May 1961, 'A Confident Young Tiger, Page 81)
