R.I.P George Steinbrenner
I am not a Yankees fan by any means, but George Steinbrenner is without a doubt the greatest professional sports owner I have ever seen. He embodies everything you would want in an owner. His number one priority was winning and winning at any cost. In his lifetime he won 7 world series and as a Cubs fan you can only dream of an owner like Steinbrenner(the Ricketts aren't even close). What made him even better was he was self-made and was bat shit crazy. Going on crazy rants, firing Billy Martin and then rehiring him, screaming at players and staff, he was just awesome. He is everything that is right in America when it comes to sports ownership. With that idiot Dan Gilbert ranting and raving and my Cubbies being owned by pussies, it is pretty clear that Steinbrenner was the best of the best. So R.I.P Steinbrenner if I could have one wish it would be someone cut from your mold would someday own the Cubs.
