Statement from George M. Steinbrenner
By Jon Lane
Yankees principal owner George Steinbrenner today released a statement through his spokesman, Howard J. Rubenstein.
“This has been a tremendous year for our team as we have settled into our new home. The New York Yankees are proud of our rich history of outstanding players and this year’s team has worked hard to prove that they are worthy of the great distinction of calling themselves Yankees.
“We look forward to finishing what we started this season and never losing sight of our goal – to bring another championship to the best fans in the world and the great city of New York.”

I hope the boys make all of our dreams come true this year! I have a great feeling about this team. Have had this feeling all season long. YANKEES in ’09!!!!
I hope to see George at the Stadium through the playoffs and see him full of champange in the clubhouse come November.
I’ve been a Yankee fan for 30 Years. While I understand the Yankees have gotten back on track as far as the post season goes, it appears that the team has forgotten thier fans. We can’t afford to go to the Stadium and we can’t watch important games on regular TV.
I can’t believe that if Mr. Steinbrenner was still in charge that things would be this way.
I hope you read this and give it some thought. Please don’t forget the fans.
