Rem Pup Posts: 106 03/19/08 1:10 PM Pinstriped Poster	There's a real nice article in the NY POST on this event. It's worth a read by any baseball fan. Also people complain about George Steinbrenner, but you have to admit the guy for all his bluster has got a pretty soft spot in his heart. From the article: According to Hal Steinbrenner and Yankees New York Yankees president Randy Levine, the decision to aid Virginia Tech was made by George Steinbrenner The-A-Rod-Gamble "four to five minutes" following the tragic events of last April 16. "As a parent something like this is unfathomable to understand what the parents of those kids went through. My father spent a lot of time on college campuses as a coach," said Hal, who was very comfortable in a public setting, something that isn't always the case. Even though there was no connection between the Yankees and Virginia Tech, Levine said the severity of the tragedy moved the club to help. "The magnitude and shock value, when that happened the Boss said, 'Get a hold of Virginia Tech.' It doesn't matter if there was a connection to Virginia Tech," Levine explained.

From the article: Agreed Cali. We may not like what he has done in MLB etc but the guy is generous. He donates quite a bit to the Jimmy Fund every year if I am not mistaken. ----------------- Chicks dig me, because I rarely wear underwear and when I do it's usually something unusual. ----John Winger, Stripes.
