And now, a ban from baseball even Ronald Reagan can't lift.

Here's to one of the game's great characters - for better or worse.

Me, too!

I usually have the news on in the morning before work. The talking heads kept sayin, "George Steinbrenner has had a massive heart attack," as if they were stretching out the new that, "George Steinbrenner did not survive his massive heart attack." Of course, I was with a client when they finally got to talk normally about it.

Way to keep it classy Rush...


George Steinbrenner was a "cracker who made a lot of African-American millionaires," conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh said Tuesday of the New York Yankees owner who died earlier in the day from a heart attack.

"He fired a bunch of white guys as managers left and right," Limbaugh said
