Allowing a MLB team to play in Canada ruined baseball. What a dump Toronto is.
How the hell is allowing a team in Canada ruining baseball? Explain how Toronto is a dump... Have you even been to Toronto?

DON'T let him get the attention he's looking for, he probably hasn't gotten any for a few days...

Anyways, RIP!

As much as I hated him and the Yankees, he did the best for his team.

RIP

A sad day for all of baseball and an even sadder day for the New York Yankees. Only a couple days after Bob Sheppard passed away, we lose THE GREATEST owner of a franchise, of all time. George was more passionate about the Yankees fans than any owner of any team & nobody else will give back to fans as much as he did. The money George invested into the team for so long and his constant quest to field the highest of talent, was nothing more than him trying to give Yankee fans winners. People hate on the Yankees for monopolizing the all star talent but as a Yankee fan, I love the fact that George ushered in a relentless commitment to winning. His passing only makes last year's Championship season even more valuable.

This man gave back to the community more than most can imagine. To steal a quote from ESPN's article:
Steinbrenner always was partial to the military and at Yankee Stadium, men and women in uniform were admitted free.
Rest in peace Mr. Steinbrenner.

I love how whenever you hear people <Censored> about Canada its cuz they've never been, its all speculation.

But u always hear from professionals, comedians, etc. saying they love visiting Canada.
