If anyone cares, NY Yankees owner George Steinbrenner had a heart attack and passed away this morning at 80.
Now he belongs to the ages....

Re: Steinbrenner passes
As a life long Boston Red Sox fan, I have to admit to having a grudging admiration for the man. He could be a tyrant, a lunatic, an insitgator, etc, but the guy ran the tightest ship in professional sports for decades. Say what you will about him but "the boss" won't soon be forgotten.

Re: Steinbrenner passes
His influence in professional baseball shaped the game. Without him, we probably would not have experienced two major league strikes.

Re: Steinbrenner passes
If I had ginzillions of dollars, I'd buy something besides a baseball team. I don't know what it would be, but it wouldn't be a baseball team.
Sorry, not a fan at all. I hate it when I have to stand around in right field and spit and scratch my crotch and make millions of dollars per year doing it. The only "sport" where you can boil a three-hour contest down to about 10 seconds of exciting video. Hey, finally something happened! - film at eleven.
I've always wondered, if you stand in right field and nobody hits a ball toward you, and you hold the bat on your shoulder for three called strikes three times, did you actually "play" a game of baseball?Charter member of the Turd NuggetsComment

He bought the Yankees for 10 million.
Now they are worth over a billion.

Re: Steinbrenner passes
In the stands at any baseball game you've got people braiding each others' hair, reading books, working crossword puzzles, doing anything to pass the tme. Granted, it's a unique setting. Why the heck even go to such a "game" if it's so boring?Charter member of the Turd NuggetsComment
