that's all you can really ask of an owner
ALL owners of major sports teams should have this approach.
His actions in this regard should be a model for EVERYONE else to follow.

But he seriously is a true legend in the sport and will always be remembered for his passion for the game and for winning, as well as resurrecting the sport's most storied franchise. The sport needed a villain and he obliged in spectacular fashion.

To the family? For what? They need help to pay for the funeral? Aare you praying the family doesn't take the loss hard? Not to be heartless or anything but just never understood that. Are they not supposed to feel bad after death? Prayers to make them feel better?

He's owning the greats now like Ruth, DiMaggio, Gehrig.

Must be tough to walk around with all that anger and hate

His passion and commitment to winning were definitely admirable traits.
Paying the mafia to dig up dirt on one of your own players--not really a trend we want all owners following.

No. No anger and hate. What am I now? Antichrist? Awesome.

The kind of owner that any fan would want to own their team. Also a great Buckeye

Hey Prom...you troll these boards all day thinking your opinion is the shite...I got news for ya, your wrong. Someone offering prayers to a family that just lost a loved one is gracious and respectful. Keep your negative crap about religion to yourself. Once again..nobody gives a shite about your rants...move on.

Completely forgot he was a Buckeye
We have something on campus named after him, but I forget what. I imagine they'll do a nice tribute.
