Chris,
It's perfectly OK to disagree.
It's not OK to post negative comments in a thread designed to eulogize someone. It shows a lack of class.
There is no argument that Steinbrenner touched many people in his life. Some good. Some bad. But it is in poor taste to wait 27 years after an event and then slam someone on a public message board.
In addition, it's poor etiquette to derail the original thread, which was intended as a tribute to a human being who has passed.
At least in your case, your facts may be accurate. Other posters who come on making wild claims about him "ruining baseball," are based in emotion, and, simply, inaccurate.
