RIP Boss.
ReplyDeleteRIP Boss, who in my lifetime has been the most interesting, frustrating, dedicated owner in sports.
ReplyDeleteA sad day in Yankees history. George combined love for the Yankees and baseball with a shrewd business sense. He'll be criticized for being ham-handed and making life for his managers hell, but no one is more responsible for making the New York Yankees what they are today. RIP, George.
