Yankees owner dies

Various reports are that George Steinbrenner, owner of the Yankees, has died from a massive heart attack.

Definitely a guy you loved to hate if you are not a Yankees fan for how much he spent on players, etc. However, no one could ever accuse him of not trying to put a World Championship team together, which I guess is what every fan of their own respective team wishes their team could say (instead of "we're trying to be competitive").

As a Red Sox fan you hated him. But at the same time had to admire him as winning championships was more important than money.
