Can't hate Steinbrenner for what he does off the field. He's always been giving money to causes around New York. Good to see him helping out the Hokies! xthumbsupx

I don't think anyone actually hates Steinbrenner (well, except for maybe Yankee fans who think he meddled for too long) - he's a great guy and his stints (well, not him of course) in the Seinfeld episodes were great (my all-time fav Steinbrenner one was where George's dad, upon hearing of George's death, berated Steinbrenner with the classic.. "how the hell could you trade Jay Buhner???") - no one (except Yankee fans of course) likes that he's made baseball into such a money game in terms of spending almost double what the second highest spending team spends, but that's business, not personal.

...or when Steinbrenner gets on the witness stand in the series finale "WHY THE HE11 DID YOU GIVE $3 MILLION DOLLARS TO HIDEKI IRABU!"


BTW, Springsteen is the "Boss" not Steinbrenner.xnonono2x
