03/18: Part of George Steinbrenner's Legacy: Charitability
The Yankees
did a great thing today. The Yankees as a team did a great thing - every member of the team and the organization that participated and supported this did a great thing.
So, I don't want to make this a George Steinbrenner thing. But, the Yankees are, in a way, a reflection of the man. For all his bluster and all of the negative things that will be a part of his legacy, his charitable nature should rank up there with any of them, when the time comes where people analyze and scrutinize what he did. He helps people and you hear stories about it, but something tells me that he's helped countless people who we never hear about.
On most days, you can be proud to be a Yankees fan. Today, you can be just a little prouder.
