Steinbrenner saved the Yankees.....They were the biggest draw in North America team sports during his era.

He demanded excellence and never accepted losing.

Had zero patience though....
He was the kind of owner every fan wants for their own team. But I believe he liked putting across the bad guy image. In this case, bad guy being a synonym for asshole.

It was the best of times and at the same time the worst of times during his ownership....Never boring though.

Although I was young at the time, I'm glad I was able to witness it. The Steinbrenner/Martin saga, the Jackson/Martin saga, the Yankees/Red Sox rivalry, the Yankees/Dodgers rivalry, etc. I hate to admit it, but nice guys are boring.😄

Billy Martin is one of the best managers I've ever seen...Problem was his shelf life was about 2 years.

If you get a chance check out his post season stats as a player.

He was a mean drunk though. So there's that.

Bryan Marchment....Took out a lot of knees in his time.

Jack Tatum............Didn't show any remorse for the Stingley hit.

Conrad Dobler.......One of the dirtiest to ever play.

Albert Belle..........Didn't get along with anyone.

Sorry to beat a dead horse, but I was 10 years old watching the NBC baseball game of the week as I normally had back then. I had been following baseball for about 2.5 years and then watched this on live tv as it happened. My jaw was on the floor the whole time. It was better than professional wrestling.

Judge needs to learn how to play right like Reggie.....He'll spend less time on the IL.

Has anyone mentioned Alex Rodriguez, yet?

According to L.A. Dodger fans this past week, George Springer is quite the A-hole.

Maybe... but I'd still take him over that arrogant cunt Brady, who wouldn't have been shit if not for Belichick and the system. I don't care at all for KC but I'm actually rooting for Manhomes to break all of his records and thanks to increased player longevity and the extra game he just might do it!

Jimmy Connors always seemed prickish to me. Rick Barry is another one

Those 2 plus Pete Rose are similar personalities IMO. Total jerk-offs

Among his peers Connors is indeed viewed as a total idiot.
