George Steinbrenner dies from massive heart attack: FOXNews.com - Yankees Owner George Steinbrenner Reportedly Suffers Heart Attack
As of right now, ESPN is the only one I see who is reporting him dead. Knew this would come eventually. No matter what you think of him, he is an icon in baseball. Update: Definitely dead now
Best owner in baseball (and probably pro sports) of my lifetime. The money he made on the Yankees was spent on trying to make the Yankees better. His moves didn't always work, but it wasn't from lack of effort. I'm as anti-Yankee as the next guy, but this man deserves a great deal of respect.
Same here, can't think of a more relevant owner in the history of sports. I hate the f'n yanks but he deserves respect.
This man started the high paying contracts back in the 70's with Reggie Jackson. From then on paying professional athletes big contracts became the norm. Steinbrenner will always be a huge part of baseball like him or not. The history he produced is unbelievable. I hated the fugger but cant help but respect his accomplishments and what the Yankee's did under his leadership.
Where their is a Jesse Jackson ignorant statement, there is a Rush Limbaugh ignorant statement.... lol gotta love this guy... Limbaugh rips Steinbrenner, draws ire - Baseball- nbcsports.msnbc.com
