Steinbrenner dead

For the Yankees, maybe. Much as I hate to say it, baseball is better without him.

Maybe without his continual insistence on large market teams (primarily his) having an unfair advantage, MLB can move forward and become something closer to what the NFL is.

All the sympathy in the world to his family, but let's be honest. Steinbrenner was the Jerry Jones of baseball.

I once hosted a sports talk show in Lakeland FL on Saturday mornings. One week we had a Rays executive on and I made a comment similar to this about Steinbrenner. The guy got this "oh crap" look on his face and immediately went into Steinbrenner defense mode. The Boss was like mafia in Tampa. He did a lot for charities and the people there were afraid to criticize him.

    • I’m still feeling a Marty party tonight 
    • Although, I will admit there is a big caveat to this game. Packers coming off an emotionally big game against Rodgers on the road in Primetime and a MNF matchup with the Eagles at home the following week, it is a prime opportunity for a let down game with them being at home and looking ahead. Which if it's the case, I think we still lose, but only something like 24-21.
    • We lose in a non competitive game 38-20. Bryce doesn't look much better than Dalton did and all the people this week saying "see we told you he's great, look how bad this team is without Bryce" blame it on the OL injuries and/or his ankle and already start laying the groundwork for that being why he is still one of the worst starting QB's the rest of the season and why he deserves another year, if not even an outright extension. And no, that's not what I'm rooting for, just what I objectively think will happen, just as I've been saying for a month would happen once we got past the cupcake portion of the schedule.
