R.I.P.
Alot of people hated him but he did so much for that franchise.
Of all of the quotes that I have read stemming from the death of Steinbrenner, the one that sums it up the best came from New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg who said, "Few people have had a bigger impact on New York over the past four decades than George Steinbrenner. George had a deep love for New York, and his steely determination to succeed combined with his deep respect and appreciate for talent and hard work made him a quintessential New Yorker." RIP Mr. Steinbrenner
