I'll bet his work remains in print for a long time. And its standout weakness will be that, like I said, he never got to write that last installment.

Yankees owner George Steinbrenner dies at 80

Quote:
NEW YORK (AP) - George Steinbrenner, who rebuilt the New York Yankees into a sports empire with a mix of bluster and big bucks that polarized fans all across America, died Tuesday. He had just celebrated his 80th birthday July 4.

Steinbrenner had a heart attack, was taken to St. Joseph's Hospital in Tampa, Fla., and died at about 6:30 a.m, a person close to the owner told The Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team had not disclosed those details.

There are a lot of people at Angels Stadium right now scrambling to alter whatever pre-game activities they had planned for tonight.

Jesus that guy is a glamor hog. He couldn't even give Bob Sheppard more than a couple days in the limelight.

Never thought he'd be traded to the Angels...

NPR personality Daniel Schorr

A couple of years ago, I thought to myself, "Daniel Schorr's starting to sound old." Exactly how old came as a shock to me. RIP.

Oh! That makes me really sad. RIP Mr. Schorr.

I loved hearing the audio of him rushing out to report on the just received "enemies list" of Richard Nixon and reading through it on air only to find his own name.

I always found his analysis on Weekend Edition to be extremely bland and obvious but there was something nice about knowing he'd been doing it for so long.
