Hank Steinbrenner

by SarasotaRanger on Jul 2, 2008 1:06 PM CDT

Hank Steinbrenner decided enough is enough and publicly blasted his team for its recent sluggish offensive performance (although this was mild compared to his normal rants). It must chap his ass that a relatively unknown guy like Scott Feldman shut down his trillion dollar lineup and our no name, low money young guys are making plays. With the Red Sox and Rays coming up, I guess he's just trying to jump start his team.

Tonight's game is the kind of game the Rangers would often lose and lose big, but the team's confidence is on the rise and I think they'll play well tonight. This will be a tremendous test for Mendoza in the Rangers' last game in the house of pain.

This guy

is the definition of a D-bag. He thinks he knows what he is doing, but he is only hurting his team. If his dad was healthy, he would slap him in the face.

Poor Hankie.

I had respect for his father, but feel Hank is going to bring the Yankees way down. At least in his first few years running the club. Does anybody know anything about his brother? The one we never hear from anymore?

Go Cubbies and Go Rangers!

He's probably

running the business, rolling in the dough while his brother is messing up a storied franchise.

you guys are insane

you think there is a difference between george and hank? there is absolutely none. hank is just the younger version of george – exact duplicate. no different than when george ran his mouth about reggie jackson.

agreed.

the apple didn’t fall far from the tree on this one. I like it, gives me more fodder for my Yankees hate, as if I needed any.

there is one difference "One's a born liar; the other's convicted." -Billy Martin

Steinbrenner secured his place in Watergate history when convicted for making an illegal contribution to Richard Nixon’s campaign fund.

for some reason george has a soft spot in my heart though, dunno why

Funny thing...

If we win tonight we’re ahead of the Yankees in the standings. I wonder if that would chap his hide that much more? We could say we’re better than the Yankees!!!
