R.I.P George Steinbrenner
Being a New York Yankee fan, this means a lot. He built the Yankees from the ground-up and there will be no one like him. He was the sole reason who the New York Yankees are today. The New York Times reports,
"George Steinbrenner, who bought a declining Yankees team in 1973, promised to stay out of its daily affairs and then, in an often tumultuous reign, placed his formidable stamp on 7 World Series championship teams, 11 pennant winners and a sporting world powerhouse valued at perhaps $1.6 billion, died Tuesday morning at a hospital in Tampa, Fla., where he lived. He was 80."
