...for me. From the Centerstage- on a responsibility to fans: "There are people that get up in the morning and have their good day or bad day depending on how the Yankees did the night before."

I'm looking forward to that one.
Airs for the first time on Sunday at 5 following the game, with an encore, I think, at 9 that evening.
Should be interesting.

How true it is - I am a 56 year old professional and should be well beyond that but my staff has learned to check the score each morning as an indicator for the kind of a day "we" will all have. Today so-so.

As a 60 year Yankee fan, I definitely agree. Probably the last 25 years puts me in the category of it's a good day or a bad day depending on how OUR TEAM DID THE NIGHT/MORNING BEFORE! I am esp. whipped today from staying up until 1:35 AM, and we blew it !!!!!!! BTW I hate those west coast games that start at 10:00 PM (our time). How about, the American League east of the Mississippi and the National League west of the Mississippi? ?

I *wish* that my good days and bad days were determined by Yankee wins or losses. That would guarantee me more good days than bad.
What I can say is that I make it a priority to know the outcome of the previous night's game if I wasn't able to see it to the end. It is a rare day that I don't know the score and the details before I brush my teeth in the morning.

Nothing like putting even more pressure on your team. Can't wait for him to have a team meeting in which he states, "You know, fellas. . . people kill themselves if you don't win. So if the U.S. population declines, you only have yourselves to blame!" Way to go, George!

Sorry niner, but you're unqualified to put words in the Boss' mouth.
The greatest owner in the history of baseball dances to his own drummer.

You're right, George W. Bush does dance to his own drummer.

Even though it was in jest, do you really think it's out of the realm of possibility? I'm curious to know why you think he's the greatest owner in the history of baseball.

What are you, on the rag today? Sometimes the simplest statements hold the most meaning, so let me spell it out for you.
George's focus is about one thing. Winning. At any or all costs. Everything else is an offshoot from that. The good and the bad.
And before you go into a 'that's what everybody's objective is' tirade, let me add that nobody, does it with the fervor or the commitment of George Steinbrenner. Love him or hate him this cannot be denied.
It's what he's all about.
