    RIP George Steinbrenner

    Im not a Yankee fan (more like a Yankee hater) but I have to show respect to one hell of a business man. Say what you want about him and the Yankee organization but the guy was commited to winning and also donated alot of money to some very good causes. He bought the Yankees in 1973 for $8.7 million and it is now worth an estimated $1.6 billion. Not a bad investment. RIP George.

    Yeah I never knew alot of that stuff until today. Seemed like he definitely had a big heart for kids. I live in the Tampa area and its been on the news all day about his donations to childrens hospitals and Boys and Girls Clubs in the area. I have a newfound respect for the guy.
