Steinbrenner was a class act.

Does anyone know if there was any kind of observation at the start of the Jets game today? The network broadcast did not indicate anything.

George was a good ol’ cuss. Used to call in and donate generously to the Red Sox’ Jimmy Fund charity telethon in Boston.

The Yankees have not always fielded the best team in baseball but they have always been classy. I’m proud to be a fan at a time like this.

Bravo for the Yankees! And that’s the first time I have ever said that.

Go figure, I thought it was Al Sharpton who was going to step forward and make the offer.

A lot of people used to hate George. But I liked him. He did what all owners of teams want, to win. He paid for the best players. He did not go on the cheep like the Atlanta Braves, my former favorite team does. They have sold every decent player they had while at the same time out bid themselves for the likes of BJ Upton giving that deadbeat $75 million for 5 years and he hits nothing and sets strikeout records the past two seasons. George paid to have the best players. I loved his fights with Billy Martin. Lots of laughs.

My father grew up going to Yankee Stadium watching the greats play. He took the family there when I grew up, declaring his children would bleed blue and white pinstripes in honor of his favorite team.

I’m so glad I’m my dad’s daughter. Thank you Yankees.

The City of New York should provide for the dependents of both those cops.

Steinbrenner was often called “the man we love to hate.”

Thanks, George.

The New York Yankees. The winingest ball club in history and a class act.
