Yankees owner George Steinbrenner dies at 80

Yankees owner George Steinbrenner died this morning at the age of 80. Love him or hate him, George brought a business like atmosphere to the Yankees organization with his no nonsense attitude, and he made the players act like professionals. With the 2010 All-Star game tonight at Anaheim Stadium I think it will be a somber moment with all the players, but especially the Yankee players that are apart of tonight’s game. Steinbrenner’s death comes within days of famed Yankees announcer Bob Sheppard who passed away earlier this week. Steinbrenner died of a heart attack at his home in Tampa, Florida, this morning and I know he’ll be missed dearly from family and multiple Yankees fans out there.

Statement from Steinbrenner family:

“It is with profound sadness that the family of George M. Steinbrenner III announces his passing. He passed away this morning in Tampa, Fla., at age 80. “He was an incredible and charitable man. First and foremost he was devoted to his entire family – his beloved wife, Joan; his sisters, Susan Norpell and Judy Kamm, his children, Hank, Jennifer, Jessica and Hal; and all of his grandchildren. “He was a visionary and a giant in the world of sports. He took a great but struggling franchise and turned it into a champion again.”Mr. Steinbrenner recently celebrated his 80th birthday on July 4. Funeral arrangements will be private. There will be an additional public service with details to be announced at a later date.

More to love

Its been a while, but I’ve come out of retirement (forced really) to say, More to Love is quite possible the greatest show on televsion.

Mock me if you will, but not since the swan has a group of low self esteemed people come together to cry about the most mundane things.

To add insult to injury, they post their weights next to their names. Heather, 22 190lbs fitness trainer. Wow, just wow,

Age of Love (9 pm, NBC)Â Season FinaleÂ – After Maria eliminated herself for good and Megan had a plane meltdown in the last episode, the finale may have trouble topping all that drama.Â Â No brainer take the hot younger chick, game over.Â

Fat March (9 pm, ABC)Â Series PremiereÂ – A bunch of fat people walk.Â This sounds facinating.Â Perhaps in the next episode, they can have them walk through a zoo, and a poacher takes them down for their tusks.Â Cheap Biggest Loser knock off, better off watching the real thing.

The pick-up Artist (9 pm, VH1) Series Premiere – Think of it as Beauty and the Geek (good), meets Back to School with Tommy Lee (bad).Â
