RIP Yankee Icons – George Steinbrenner 1930-2010, Bob Sheppard 1910, 2010

Longtime Yankees owner George Steinbrenner died today. Often a polarizing figure, Steinbrenner built a behemoth of a sports empire. He always set the bar as high as possible – failure was unacceptable. It’s been great being a Yankee fan under his leadership. I think he’s taught a lot of people what winning means. Always intense and always classy, he will be missed.

Longtime Yankee announcer Robert Leo “Bob” Sheppard died on the 11th.
