    This stinks. Seems there are conflicting reports on if he is alive or not. Either way, a massive heart attack at 80 is not good. Fuck.

    sad :(

    I send my condolences once more to the entire Yankee organization and their fans. All differences aside, this has been a rough week for Yankee nation. :(

    I am a die hard Mets fan and grew up in the Bronx Zoo era... No team or owner I hated more than the Yankees but this really upsets me... He was great for Baseball and kept the NY papers busy for years...

    RIP

    you know the black armband will be on the uniforms Friday Night.

    I actuyally remember him signing Catfish Hunter, at the time the most expensive pitcher out there.

    He always wanted towin, thats what we all will miss the most.

    I guess the Boys in the Bronx will have somebody looking down on them as they make their march toward #28; not a bad guy to have in your corner.

    I remember when I was 9 years old hearing the Yanks had fired Showalter and hired this guy named Torre. I was so pissed off at George. It ended up turning out alright.
  • Cliffy6745Cliffy6745 Posts: 33,739
    It is pretty crazy how different generations of Yankees fans feel about the man. All are sad today but my father spent the majority of my childhood cursing his existence. Obviouslyl he learned his lessons and made the Yankees, the Yankees again but there are plently of Yankees faithful who despised him for a long time. No matter what, it's a sad day.

    Frank: What the hell did you trade Jay Buhner for?! He had 30 home runs and over 100 RBIs last year. He's got a rocket for an arm. You don't know what the hell you're doin'!

    Steinbrenner: Well, Buhner was a good prospect, no question about it. But my baseball people loved Ken Phelps' bat. They kept saying "Ken Phelps, Ken Phelps."
