The Boss

Quick! Someone needs to give me $1.6 billion to buy the Yankees. George Steinbrenner, the owner of the Yanks died yesterday as most of you probably heard. He was a crazy hardcore business man and is pretty much the reason the Yankees are what they are (the best team in baseball). One of his famous quotes is "Breathing first, then winning." I mean that's pretty intense. He did whatever it took and payed whatever amount to win baseball games. I'm not saying that's the most moral motto for your life, but in the name of business, it's pretty dang smart. There are only 2 sports teams worth more than the Yankees in the world, Manchester United (awesome soccer club in England) and the Dallas Cowboys (not so awesome football team in America) so he must have done something right. I'm going to my first Yankees game on Friday! There's a small portion of my life on Earth where I will strive to make all of my sports dreams come true and I'm well on my way with this one. It'll be the teams first game back from the All-Star break, the first game after their owner's death, and they're playing the second best team in the league. So I think I lucked out and couldn't be more excited. I think it's perfect timing if you ask me. I'm probably going meet some big shot wearing a tie and convince him that letting me be the next owner would be a great decision. All those who pitch in to buy me the team for my birthday, I'll give you a job and an endless amount of hot dogs on game days.
