Gossip On Sports - The Latest Dish On and Off the Field

Humility Runs in the Steinbrenner Family

by Jodie Lynn Boduch on March 1st, 2008

We HEART doing this kind of post! You know, the kind when someone make a complete and total horse’s posterior of themselves without any help. Case in point: New York Yankees owner Hank Steinbrenner, who proves in the following quote that

(a) He is as much of a jerk, and possibly more so, than his ol’ man George;

(b) Quotes like this are the reason people love to hate the Yankees; and

(c) The Yanks are a smidge bitter about the Red Sox “reversing the curse” in recent years.

Straight from the mouth of the ass . . . Oops, wrong animal! We meant horse:

Red Sox Nation?” What a bunch of [expletive] that is,” he said in an interview with The New York Times’ Play magazine. “That was a creation of the Red Sox and ESPN, which is filled with Red Sox fans. . . . Go anywhere in America and you won’t see Red Sox hats and jackets, you’ll see Yankee hats and jackets. This is a Yankee country. We’re going to put the Yankees back on top and restore the universe to order.”

A Yankee country? No one’s called it that since the Union won the Civil War. Even Steinbrenner Sr. isn’t old enough to remember those days. (We think).
