most recent info - doesn't say that he is dead. The Yankee announcer, Bob Sheppard died.

Apperantly it was a massive heart attack, but no confirmation of death as of yet.

It wasn't meant to be an insult - just some extra coincidental info.
Jeez!

Seinfeld did a ton to rehab his image, as did retirement. A larger than life Yankees figure. Between him and Billy Martin, I'm not sure who created more lifelong Yankees haters in the 80's and 90's.

Nope, look at the history of the person as well as having friends who trained for him.

Everything he ever did was in the interest of making the Yanks the best they can be. Yankee fans owe him a debt of gratitude for that. RIP Boss and thanks for all you did for all of us Yankee fans who had to endure the Horace Clarke years.

Oh I believe that he was real S.O.B. to work for. He also took a beating for some shady dealings in the late 80's.
But if you are a fan of the organization, how can you not love him? The most important thing in the world to him was winning and he would do anything possible for his team to reach it's goal.

Sorry! I didn't pick up on that, and I'm not looking for an argument.
I'm sorry he died. I wonder if he was still involed in race horse ownership. R.I.P., Mr. Steinbrenner.

Come on Marty.............You know there is a difference between just being hard to work for and being a ****. As much as I respect everything the man has done for the Yanks, apparently he fell into that **** category.
